To the suffering of the Haitian population, which continues to plunge into the wave intense violence and insecuritynow adds the detachment and skepticism of those few political players who supported the caretaker prime minister. Ariel Henry before date.
For this reason, the country’s civil society has called for anti-government mobilization, which began on Sunday and is scheduled to end on February 7, the day dedicated to the fall of dictatorship imposed Duvalier clanand the day Ariel Henry planned to end his term.
Camille Chalmers, professor of economics and political science at the University of Port-au-Prince, explains.
There is a lot of uncertainty because they have announced demonstrations, mobilizations, strikes… This is a kind of expression of the fatigue and indignation of the population: after 30 months of a completely illegal and illegitimate provisional government, living conditions are terrible from a point of view, economic, social and instability have worsened. So this is to some extent an expression of the population’s rejection of this form of government and the form of dominance of North American imperialism.
The current protests in Haiti have caused some confusion among the population, since among the initiators of these mobilizations a former police officer and now a paramilitary leader stands out. Guy Philipin turn, one of the organizers of the 2004 coup d’état and former senator Jean-Charles Moiselargest opposition leader.
– commented Chalmers.
Guy Philippe was imprisoned in the United States. I know that he admitted to being a drug trafficker and returned to the country with a very unexpected speech, taking advantage of the fatigue of the population and declaring that he wanted to make a revolution. Quite an amazing speech that has nothing to do with his past. Jean-Charles Moise had important political clout, but was somewhat discredited due to confusion over his alliance with the far right wing. So he doesn’t have the same political clout that he had four or five years ago.
The teacher emphasizes that there is huge confusion in the political situation‘ because ‘Philip’s methods and political vision are not much different from the actions of the gangs, and some people even foresee some kind of alliance between the gangs and Philip. So it’s a pretty confusing game.” Moreover, he added.
There is also a hypothesis that all this could lead to a new foreign military occupation of the United States.
The insecurity the country is experiencing due to the activities of criminal gangs has caused the exodus of more than 300 thousand people within its own territory. Meanwhile, the stagnation of the UN-approved dispatch of an international mission has created uncertainty and despair among the population.
