The de facto Prime Minister Ariel Henry and the elected president of the Montana agreement Fritz Alphonse Jean met yesterday, Thursday, August 4, 2022.
The discussions focused on the need to find an agreement to the crisis as soon as possible.
Two other people whose names were not revealed also took part in this meeting which lasted more than two hours, Zoom Haiti News has learned.
From sources close to the U.S. diplomacy, we learned that the U.S. government and other international partners would have increased the pressure on Ariel Henry to find an agreement as soon as possible with all actors of the Haitian political microcosm. The U.S. Department of State would not have looked kindly on Mr. Henry’s desire to lead the transition alone.
For there to be an electoral law for the organization of the next electoral competitions, it is necessary to have a provisional president, had suggested the U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Brian Nichols during a press conference last month.
We have also learned that Dr. Ariel Henry has finally decided to abandon his unwavering commitment to a one-man government. However, he wants to be the president of the transition at all costs.
At a time when several political parties and groups are turning their backs on the Haitian Prime Minister, in light of the September 11 agreement, not to mention the fact that the proponents of the Montana Accord have just broken off all dialogue with him, the political situation in the country remains increasingly unlikely.
