President Barack Obama promised Haitians Thursday they would not be forgotten, offering 100 million dollars in immediate earthquake aid and every element of US power to help them.
"To the people of Haiti, we say clearly and with conviction, you will not be foresaken, you will not be forgotten," Obama said.
Obama offered "every element of our national capacity, our diplomacy, and development assistance, the power of our military and most importantly, the compassion of our country" following the disaster.
