[0:00] He's must make dramatic gestures if

[0:02] they're to win MFN before the June 3rd

[0:05] deadline. Deborah Wang, ABC News,

[0:08] Beijing.

[0:10] >> 500 people, twice as many as expected,

[0:13] attended a conference in Miami today

[0:15] organized by exiled Haitian president

[0:17] Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

[0:20] The purpose of the conference to discuss

[0:22] ways of restoring democracy to Haiti.

[0:24] And it came as Haiti's military rulers

[0:29] US. More from ABC's Linda Patillo.

[0:35] >> Aristide supporters demonstrated outside

[1:18] the new deadline for Haiti's military

[1:20] leaders to step down. The US and other

[1:25] asking the United Nations to tighten

[1:27] sanctions on Haiti, but the

[1:29] administration has avoided any threats

[1:31] of force.

[1:32] >> We have never talked about military

[1:33] intervention. We've talked about

[1:35] pressure from the international

[1:37] community to bring about a negotiated

[1:39] settlement, yeah, and that's all the
