Haiti - Politic : Strong reactions of Evans Paul against Laurent Lamothe and the Government
26/04/2012 10:56:35

Visibly frustrated, that the Prime Minister-designate, Laurent Lamothe still have not officially met those responsible of the Alternative, as part of ratification process, preferring discuss with some parliamentarians and party leader, member of the Alternative platform (OPL and Fusion), Evans Paul, the leader of Konvasyon Inite Demokratik (KID), member of the Alternative platform, is outraged by this practice that he describes as "a bad practice".

He describes as "a lie" those who argue that Laurent Lamothe is the one that will out the country of the crisis and who asks his early ratification, considering that Laurent Lamothe will not be able to meet its commitments vis-à-vis the parliamentarians, speaking of manipulation and improvisation that could lead the country into chaos.

Evans Paul deplores the attitude of some senators in end of term, who have voted in favor of Prime Minister designated by focusing on their personal interests over those of their political parties. He says that for the Alternative platform, it is clear that the Prime Minister-designate, is not eligible and invites his colleagues deputies "to assume their responsibilities, on voting day."

Furthermore, the leader of KID estimates that "the current governance of the country has nothing to do with democracy" and that in the absence of the Head of State and of a Prime Minister, "the government is dysfunctional."

An opinion not shared by André Lemercier Georges, the Minister of Economy and Finance, which states instead that "the government resigning is not dysfunctional in the absence of the President Martelly [...] all ministries are at work [...] the government is healthy."

Finally, Paul Evans considers that "the current crises are the result of the ignorance of the head of state in the policy" noting that his position is shared by many observers who also question about the ability of the President Martelly to direct the country, due to the absence of decisions on certain issues."
