We in the coalition who are signatories to the August 30, 2021 agreement (Montana) are very concerned about how the international community is imposing their own game rules on Haitian actors in setting up a continuous transition. We are in agreement with the principle of transition to cut off the anger that the 30-day agreement was sending up. The maddening transition has a series of principles and fundamental characteristics that characterize it. Principles such as regaining the rights of the country’s majors that cannot be negotiated. Keeping the seniority means throwing away all forms of occupation. CARICOM, which is supposed to play a middle game role, seems, through its actions, to be an interested political actor who is acting according to the agenda of the powers that dominate the country, together with the politicians and political organizations of its restaurateurs inside the country. In this logic, transnational occupation is imposed as the condition for establishing the transition. This does not work at all with our convictions and principles.
An angry cut transition must be clear from the choice of the people in it. In this sense, we continue to believe that PHTK and its allies have no place in any transitional government that aims to regain the country’s greatness and establish conditions for the Haitian people to live in peace and dignity. It is this regime that has put us in the quagmire we are in, with the aim of dismantling from the ground up all initiatives and popular mobilization in the country that require changing the system. The popular saying of overturning the cauldron is a clear expression of the will and determination of the Haitian people to establish another model of society. Therefore, the people and organizations of the “legal thugs” PHTK and its allies, who are supported by the “international community”, are the ones responsible for today’s chaos and terror situation for more than a decade. The Haitian people call boredom enough. PHTK and its allies on the obedience of the Core group (United States, France, Canada…) can’t stop creating diamonds, creating problems, and looking for solutions. They are setting fire and they are the firemen again.
It has been 13 years since the PHTK regime has been in power and will benefit from the blessings of the Core Group countries (in particular the United States, France and Canada), the Haitian people never miss an opportunity to throw these people into the dustbin of history for financial crimes, massacres, corruption and all the evil deeds committed against the people. An angry transition requires people and organizations that do not have gold rings, that are not involved in any bad deeds, drugs, financial crimes, kidnappings, murders; People who have never been convicted by the country’s or international judiciary. An angry transition must have people who are not under any national or international sanctions, people who have never tied their sausages to the criminal regime of PHTK and who have never served the interests of foreign countries. This means that this transition needs only people and organizations that are integrated, credible, honest, patriotic, strong, competent and that will put the interests of Haiti before everything. In this sense, we are very concerned about the presence of Montana in the presidential college set up by CARICOM because the CARICOM initiative does not respond to any aggressive steps. In our opinion, the goal is to end all Haitian initiatives for the country to gain its own sovereignty and prevent Haiti from bringing a Haitian solution and the crisis created in the country.
We note that all the shenanigans CARICOM is executing in the name of its employers are contrary to all the fundamental principles of the transition. Everything that is going on here responds to the objectives of the countries oppressing Haiti to renew and strengthen the PHTK regime and its allies who respond like pimps to the projects of the countries dominating Haiti. Moreover, it is a gimmick to continue and strengthen the dependence and domination of the country. To accept this is to sell the right of the greatness of the country to the greatness. As Montana said in his initial program, Haiti needs a transition from angry Haitians and Haitians to decide in adulthood. It is a transition that must at least create the conditions to de-ghost the country in all its seams (especially economic and political), repatriate the country’s seniority by organizing proper elections without the dictatorship of foreign countries or the local oligarchy. All transitions must be clear to the Haitian people from the choice of people and organizations participating in it. This transition must create conditions for people to live in peace, in dignity and lay the basis for people to live like people, the basis for citizens and citizens to see and do politics in a different way in the country and create conditions for lawsuits to be made on all financial crimes and the massacre against the Haitian people.
All CARICOM moves are contrary to this project. And in this sense, we believe that the 30 Dawout agreement must launch a permanent communication process to explain to all the signatory organizations and the Haitian people in general what is going on. When we find out what is being done contrary to the cut transition project, it gives you great concern. Sooner or later, sadder, we continue to believe that at the crossroads where we are, all true patriots and progressive organizations have a historical and ethical responsibility to gather and unite in a united front to prevent the country from falling into a trap that will renew PHTK and allies and dismantle all democratic and popular initiatives. We must combine our strength in adults to land the transition project. It’s an appointment we have with history, let’s respond now and assume our responsibility.
Haiti before everything! Long live Haiti! Long live the struggle of the Haitian people! Those who fight do not die!
