LE « CORE GROUP » SOUTIENT LES EFFORTS POUR TROUVER UNE ISSUE ET RÉITÈRE SON SOUTIEN À L’ABOUTISSEMENT DU PROCESSUS ÉLECTORAL
Port-au-Prince, le 22 janvier 2016 – La Représentante spéciale du Secrétaire général des Nations Unies et les autres membres de la communauté internationale en Haïti représentés dans le « Core Group » (les Ambassadeurs du Brésil, du Canada, d’Espagne, de France, des États-Unis d’Amérique, de l’Union européenne, et le Représentant spécial de l’Organisation des États américains) réitèrent leur appui continu pour la conclusion d’un processus électoral inclusif et équitable tout en soutenant les efforts visant à trouver une issue qui assure le renouvellement démocratique des institutions de l’Etat.
Le « Core Group » maintien son plein soutien aux efforts ayant pour but d’identifier des solutions consensuelles et constructives aux défis actuels de gouvernance d’Haïti, à travers les élections et un dialogue entre les acteurs concernés.
Les membres du « Core Group » déplorent les récents actes de violence électorale et appellent les autorités nationales, les partis politiques, les candidats et leurs partisans, ainsi que l’électorat en général, à participer de manière responsable et avec retenue dans le processus électoral, afin que le peuple haïtien puisse exprimer sa volonté dans un climat dépourvu d’intimidation et de violence.
MARTELLY WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE A PUBLIC STATEMENT AT 5 P.M. BUT CANCELLED THIS AND TOLD ALL THE MEDIA TO LEAVE THE PALACE.
WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF MARTELLY IS FORCED TO STEP DOWN – IMMEDIATELY.
he should be executed along with his entire family as an example to all of those who are waiting in the wings contemplating similar action as he. God bless Haiti
A lot of people on the streets – peaceful.
Very few involved in violence. Mostly small pick-ups with 6 or 7 people, driving through streets, stopping to burn a car, throw rocks through windows, then move to another location and repeat.
Martelly should have put MINUSTAH and PNH on streets with order to prevent any demonstrations.
Martelly has done all he can in order to find a peaceful resolution to the crisis.He did compromise and offered many invitations to candidate of the opposition for dialogue, but the candidate never wants to meet with him and the CEP. However, the opposition was not doing anything else but trying to abort the presidential election in order to move to a government of transition. Th Core Group better know exactly what they’re doing because a government of transition may trigger a civil war in Haiti and the whole world will blame this failure on no one else but the Core Group.
The Core Group should know that we (the people from the diaspora) know very well that the only way some one should get to the presidential chair is by election. Therefore, the elections in Haiti must be continued to ensure a peaceful future for the Haitian Citizens.
