Your Haiti analogy greatly oversimplifies the complexity of the situation. Europe and the West have been bending over backwards to help integrate Russia into the international economy. The entire point of those efforts were to build trade relationships and de-escalate security concerns. Russia has been taking full advantage of those economic relationships while maintaining an aggressive posture towards the buffer states. And as a result, those buffer states have been joining NATO. The only way your hypothetical analogy would make sense is if Russia/China spent decades trying to improve economic relationships with the US, and the US took advantage of those overtures while maintaining an aggressive military posture. At that point, I think most of the world we be sympathetic with installing a pro Russia/China regime in Haiti.
