Thursday, after 3 days of paralysis of the country to protest against the insecurity and the shortage of fuel, Prime Minister a.i. Ariel Henry addressed the Nation but also to the gangs and those who support them.

Regarding the fuel shortage he assured "I want everyone to know that the country is not short of fuel. The Government is making a lot of efforts to ensure that all the tanks have enough gasoline and as we know that the demand will increase, when the delivery starts again, several more orders have already been placed and there are boats waiting to be unloaded."

Regarding the distribution of fuel he said that the National Police of Haiti (PNH) had set up a security corridor to allow tankers to refuel safely in the various oil terminals and that "It is starting to deliver results".

However, since his declarations, service stations across the country remain closed and the Varreux terminal is still blocked and under the control of rowed men from the coalition of "G9 and allied" Gangs https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-35103-haiti-flash-the-usa-will-intervene-in-the-delivery-of-fuel-in-haiti.html

Regarding the gangs he clearly wanted to dissociate himself from them saying "[...] The Government that I lead does not associate with the gangs and does not negotiate with them in any form [...]"

Ariel Henry considers that all those who support the bandits, help them find weapons and ammunition, give them money, use it to block activities in the country or to take power. "All are enemies of the Haitian people and will be treated as such [...]" adding "The only options available to the bandits and their sponsors are prison or death [...]"
