Haiti - Security : Himmler Rébu reacts to the statements of Canada
17/11/2011 08:28:10

Yesterday the former colonel Himmler Rébu, leader of the Grand Rally for the Evolution of Haiti (GREH) reacted to the statements of John Babcock, spokesman for the Minister of State of Foreign Affairs, Diane Ablonczy who expressed concern "Canada fears that creating a second security force will significantly reduce resources available for Haiti's other important priorities" specifying that Canada would not help to pay for a second security force and that it will focus its support on the police force.

Himmler Rébu think that we are back to colonial times "...we are truly back in the colony of St. Domingue, it's like when Leclerc is arrived with his expedition, with the firm conviction to restore slavery, slaves had to accept the principle that they did not have enough weapons, that they did not have enough dignity, that they could not defend a global topic. And it is precisely the contrary that happened. [...] I think it's extremely presumptuous from foreigners to think that they are masters of everything and everyone in Haiti."

The former colonel expressed support for the approach of the head of state but calls for the creation of a national council "I fully support the approach of President Martelly but I ask that there is a national council around the question so that the project is not the project of only one man or a part of the society, but that it is a national project."

On the occasion of the commemoration of the Battle of Vertières, this Friday, November 18, Himmler Rébu wish "that the President issues purely and simply a presidential decree referring the 'villain' (scélérat) decree which was took by the President Aristide, and secondly that he constitutes a multidisciplinary committee composed of psychologists, ethologists, sociologists, doctors, lawyers, soldiers from several different technical trend, so that they can sit and make the design of a real national army," adding "is at this price that I would go in the direction of a national army, not the Armed Forces of Haiti as it is provided in the Haitian Constitution..." specifying that the force "should be a matter of the whole nation of Haiti, because that the Minsutah want it or not, the Minsutah will have to leave, and the military forces of the Minsutah will have to be replaced by other military forces, that can only be National."
