Haiti, once a major Cane Sugar producer, is now importing Sugar from Europe for consumption

"Even Haiti Is Buying European Sugar," a Bloomberg article headline reads. Haiti, once a major grower of cane in the Caribbean, is now buying sugar produced in sugar beets farms in Europe.

That quota has been lifted. now, sugar firms in the European Union can now produce and export as much sugar as they want.

Of course, these European sugar producing companies are going to look for other countries to dump their sugar surpluses, Countries like Haiti which produces NO sugar except "Rapadou!"
