The paper offers a preliminary appraisal of United Nations Security Council resolution 2699 (2023) that authorized the deployment of the new Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission in Haiti. It inquires whether the MSS may represent a new way to preserve international peace and security by the United Nations. The article first explores the practice of UN-authorized missions led by coalitions of States. Against this backdrop, it highlights the innovative elements of the MSS, focusing on the establishment of two human rights compliance instruments within the mission: the robust compliance mechanism and the oversight mechanism. A critical analysis of the difficulties in establishing these two mechanisms is provided, and possible solutions are suggested.

Abstract
The paper offers a preliminary appraisal of United Nations Security Council resolution 2699 (2023) that authorized the deployment of the new Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission in Haiti. It inquires whether the MSS may represent a new way to preserve international peace and security by the United Nations. The article first explores the practice of UN-authorized missions led by coalitions of States. Against this backdrop, it highlights the innovative elements of the MSS, focusing on the establishment of two human rights compliance instruments within the mission: the robust compliance mechanism and the oversight mechanism. A critical analysis of the difficulties in establishing these two mechanisms is provided, and possible solutions are suggested.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
