In a note dated June 15, Sandra Honoré, the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and the other members of the international community in Haiti represented in the "Core Group" (the Ambassadors of Brazil, Canada, France, Spain, the United States of America and the European Union, and the Special Representative of the Organization of American States) "take note of the opening of the second ordinary session of Parliament in accordance with the Constitution. The 'Core Group' expresses concern that no measures have been taken to ensure institutional continuity beyond 13 June as provided for in the 5 February Agreement https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-16533-haiti-politic-the-details-of-the-agreement-from-a-to-z.html

The 'Core Group' calls on the National Assembly to take action and reach a solution which avoids an institutional vacuum, and facilitate the return to constitutional order through the holding of elections without further delay. It urges all actors, political parties, candidates and their supporters and others to maintain calm and to refrain from violence."

Note that since June 15, 2016 the former provisional President Jocelerme Privert whose mandate came to end on June 14 at midnight according to the agreement of February 5, ensure the defacto presidency of Haiti, pending a decision of the National Assembly on the institutional continuity.
