PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI - MARCH 08: The destroyed presidential palace is viewed following tensions over the current presidents nationality on March 8, 2012 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Haitian President Michel Martelly is trying to quell rumors over his nationality after he was accused of not being a Haitian citizen. At a nationally televised news conference on Thursday, the president showed reporters his blue Haitian passport and U.S. ambassador to Haiti Kenneth Merten stated that Martelly is not a U.S. citizen. Two years after the 7.0 magnitude quake that killed an estimated 316,000 people, much of Haiti is still in a crisis situation with tens of thousands living in tent camps in and around Port-au-Prince.
