22/02/2020 09:41:35
Following the 31st Intersessional Meeting of the Conference of Heads of State and Government of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) in Bridgetown (Barbados) which ended on Wednesday, Chancellor Bocchit Edmond, who represented President Jovenel Moïse https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-30062-icihaiti-politic-moise-cancels-his-participation-in-the-caricom-meeting.html regretted that this conference ended on the division of the countries members.
Explaining "[...] hre issue is the deeply polarising constitutional crisis in Venezuela, with some nations supporting Nicolas Maduro's claim to power, and others supporting Juan Guaido. For Haiti, our decision is rooted in a desire to see democracy and self-determination for the Venezuelan people, who have for too long been denied the right to select their leader. We have chosen to recognise Juan Guaido as the legitimate leader of Venezuela in line with the country's constitution https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-27434-haiti-politic-venezuela-new-vote-of-haiti-against-the-legitimacy-of-president-maduro.html
What happens in Venezuela matters profoundly to all Caribbean nations as our futures are interconnected. It's right that we focus attention on the issue. Caricom countries are united on principles of non-intervention and a commitment to a peaceful resolution to the ongoing political crisis of legitimacy. We cannot allow this issue to drive a wedge between us. It is our belief that all of Caricom's member states will benefit from a peaceful, swift, and democratic resolution which follows the will of the Venezuelan people.."
