Haiti - Politics : Message from the Prime Minister to the Nation 26/12/2016 07:35:33
Message from the Prime Minister : "Haitian people, My fellow citizens, The end-of-year celebrations approach inexorably. They will find us in an atmosphere of anxiety, uncertainty, byzantine struggles for the conquest of power, when they were supposed to see us in a fraternal communion for the regeneration of the common homeland. I am aware that these celebrations will not be quite happy. The post-electoral political difficulties have not helped the Government to create the conditions to deal with this serious economic crisis, which are affecting the most vulnerable stata of the population. Despite a difficult economic situation, we have thought of ad hoc measures to alleviate the suffering of the social strata most affected by this rapidly deteriorating of terms of exchanges, while considering that the priority of the day is to save the Elections as the only means of renewal of political staff. In this historical turn of our life as a free and independent people, we must realize that, despite all our political, ideological and socio-cultural differences, there is one thing that we share: Haiti, that piece of land which is our common good. We have a duty to protect it from attacks from wherever they come from... It is our duty to unite to save our integrity... All our history, following this unprecedented epic that we realized in the world at the beginning of the 19th century, is marked by the blood of the fratricidal struggles that we led and which have slowed our march towards progress and modernity. The lack of consensus and dialogue between members of the political class has long invalidated the many positive initiatives that could have led the country beyond the borders of 'backwardness', instability and anarchy... The heart of this country, despite everything, is still pulsating at the rhythm of goodwill and determination to transcend the divisions and differences that can potentially engulf us. At the end of the year, I make a vibrant appeal for a truce... Let us bury the hatchet, ladies and gentlemen, and smoke the calumet of peace, while having the courage to enter into constructive dialogue, even just for this period of grace. Christmas is the time of reconciliation ... Christmas, it is the time of forgiveness and redemption... The spirit of Christmas is that of solidarity, of living together... On behalf of all members of the Government and on behalf of all my colleagues at the Primature, I wish you happy end-of year celebrations and to approach the new year 2017 in Peace, calm and in this spirit of patriotic union and hope for the well-being of the common homeland. Above all, accept my wishes for health which each citizen needs in this time of hardship. Merry Christmas 2016, Happy New Year 2017." Enex Jean-Charles Prime minister HL/ HaitiLibre
