Haiti - UN : RNDDH denounces the Haitian Government, BINUH and the international community
12/09/2021 10:32:22

During a virtual meeting with the United Nations Security Council Me Rosy Auguste Ducena Head of Programs of the National Network for the Defense of Human Rights (RNDDH) made an uncompromising intervention, accusing the Haitian Government and the Integrated Bureau of United Nations in Haiti (BINUH) to be responsible for almost all the evils that Haiti knows.

Extract from the intervention of Me Auguste Ducena:
"[...] Since the departure of dictator Jean Claude Duvalier in 1986, this is the first time that the country has regressed so much in terms of respect for the rules of the democratic rule of law.

With the passive complicity of the international community including the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH), the regime in power has decided to strengthen armed gangs and weaken State institutions such as the police and justice [...]

As we speak to you, BINUH remains the worst UN mission the country has ever seen. On the national territory, any sector of society which dares to denounce the abuses of the State, that is to say, impunity, corruption, the instrumentalisation of State institutions, faces the BINUH which immediately cuts off any contact with this sector.

In addition, for having hastened in the aftermath of the tragic assassination of de facto President Jovenel Moïse, to install a one-headed government with the Core Croup, without any political agreement, the BINUH became one of those responsible for this new crisis that is raging in the country and which is pushing its citizens a little further away [...]

And, since it turns a blind eye to the deterioration of the general human rights situation in Haiti, in the various reports it submits to you, BINUH describes a utopian country, where everything is fine.

[...] We recommend that the United Nations Security Council position itself in order :

[...] To urge BINUH to end its support for a one-headed government, as well as for an electoral process that risks aggravating the current political instability with already devastating consequences;

[...] To invite BINUH to tackle the task for which it was mandated, while listening to the Haitian people.

[...] We urge the United Nations Security Council to change the leadership of BINUH."
