Are you talking about Napaleon? I genuinely do not understand what century are you living in, because modern France never invaded Haiti and houthis are not legal body of Haiti.
Huh, so you just don’t know the history. Fair enough. Here’s the Wikipedia article on the heinous debt that France forced Haiti to pay - at literal gunpoint - for daring to free themselves from slavery and French Colonial rule. They pulled all sorts of scummy tricks, like forcing them to use French banks and to take out loans to pay the debt, which of course resulted in more debt. It took over a century for the debt to be paid, and was a transfer of a huge part of the wealth of the entire country directly to the French rich (at some points this constituted FORTY PERCENT of the total income of the country). It severely impacted the development of Haiti over the last two centuries, and is widely held to be directly responsible for the poverty Haiti now experiences.

I get your point, but also, Haiti’s final payment to France was in 1947
