Likewise, the European Union announced the day before that it will send humanitarian aid worth 20 million euros. “An unprecedented level of gang violence dramatically increases humanitarian needs across the country,” said European Commission spokesperson Balazs Ujvari.

For their part, political forces in Haiti expressed their rejection of the Presidential Council proposed by the Caribbean Community (Caricom). “Caricom’s decision is not our decision,” said former senator and presidential candidate Moïse Jean-Charles.

In this sense, who recently came out of prison after pleading guilty to money laundering, highlighted that Haitians are the ones who have to decide who will govern their country.

Likewise, the president of the Great Rally for the Evolution of Haiti party, Himmler Rébu, said that he would prefer a Supreme Court judge to assume power rather than an entity imposed abroad.

Accordingly, he emphasized that the caucus is ashamed and furious about “the pursuit of positions of power that do not take into account the responsibilities assigned to them.”
