Call for ‘realistic, lasting
solutions’ in Haiti
By Nelson A. King
Opposition-led protests in Haiti calling
for the president to step down,
which sparked violence last week, have
prompted a group of senior diplomats,
included the top United Nations official
there, to deplore the loss of life and call
for dialogue to end the crisis.
The so-called Core Group comprises
the head of UN Mission, MINUJUSTH,
Helen Meagher La Lime; and the UN
ambassadors of Brazil, Canada, France,
Germany, Spain, the European Union,
the United States, and the Special
Representative of the Organization of
American States.
The UN said on Monday that the
Core Group took note of the demands
expressed by demonstrators last Thursday,
aimed at a worsening the economic
crisis that has led to a drop in
living standards, inflation at around
15 percent, a growing national deficit,
and allegations of corruption leveled
at President Jovenel Moise, before he
took office.
The group “deplores the loss of
life and property damage caused by
the unacceptable acts of violence that
took place on the margins of the rallies,
while acknowledging the professionalism
demonstrated by the Haitian
National Police,” according to the
statement issued on Monday.
According to news reports, at least
four were killed and dozens injured
during four days of protests in the
Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince, and
other cities across the French-speaking
Caribbean nation. Annual carnival
festivities were cancelled in parts of
the country at the weekend.
Opposition groups called for demonstrations
after a court report alleged
that officials and former Government
ministers had reportedly misappropriated
millions of dollars in loans made
to Haiti by Venezuela after 2008, the
UN said.
The Group members call on political
and civil society leaders to “engage
in a constructive and inclusive dialogue
in order to identify and implement
realistic and lasting solutions to
the political and economic crisis currently
occurring in Haiti.”
The government needs to “accelerate
its structural reforms aimed at
promoting a better management of the
State’s resources” said the communique,
“improve the living conditions of
the most vulnerable, fight inequalities,
and foster a conducive investment climate
to stimulate the development of
productive sectors – essential to catalyzing
the country’s growth.”
“Change must come through the
ballot box, and not through violence,”
said the statement, urging the government
and legislators “to collaborate
for the electoral law and the 2018-2019
budget law to be adopted and promulgated
as soon as possible.
“It is only through these actions
that the elections scheduled by the
constitution for October 2019 can be
held in a free, fair and transparent
manner, and that an institutional vacuum
will be avoided,” the statement
added.
