He believes that the process lacks credibility and that conditions are not yet fulfilled to return to the polls, since neither the Government nor the Provisional Electoral Council have, according to him the intention to correct the "serious irregularities" found by the Independent Electoral Commission of Evaluation...

For the candidate of LAPEH, the elections are "against democratic norms" and he calls on the Haitian people "to note of the enemies conspiring against the country with part of the international community," referring to the recent support of the United States for the second round of the presidential election, scheduled for 24 January. https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-16267-haiti-diplomacy-the-united-states-welcomed-the-announcement-of-the-2nd-round.html

Speaking on behalf of the G8, Jude Célestin affirmed once again ""We are united more than ever to respect the popular vote, we will not abandon the people and we support all types of democratic movements to demand that democracy e the central pillar of the country [...]" adding "we are here to solve the problems that exist with the laws and not to create a crisis illegally and aggravate the state of poverty in which people live."
