The follow-up Committee of the Marriott agreement has chosen the judge who should « replace » Jovenel Moïse

The Follow-up Committee of the Marriott Agreement finally agreed on the name of the judge of the Court of Cassation who, according to the logic of the opposition, will replace the President of the Republic. « Because we can not guarantee the security of the next provisional President of the Republic, we are careful not to make public his name for the moment », said on Tuesday evening to Nouvelliste Génard Joseph, member of the monitoring committee of the Accord de Marriott …

« We reviewed and met the 11 judges of the Court of Cassation. Three of them let us understand that they are not interested in our approach … « , told the newspaper Genard Joseph. « We have already made our choice among the judges of the Court of Cassation. But since the opposition is not able to ensure the security of a president or a prime minister in the current context where the regime is more and more criminal, we are obliged to keep the name of the next president in total confidentiality, « said Nouvelliste M. Joseph.

He also said that the Monitoring Committee is working for the meeting of the signatories of the Marriott Agreement, which will be the first to take notice of their choice.

Génard Joseph further pointed out that the Monitoring Committee has a small delay in choosing the transition Prime Minister. According to his explanations, the Consensual Alternative and the institutional opposition which take precedence in the choice of the candidature of the Transitional Prime Minister have been delayed in their presentation. « They will have to give us their choice tonight (note: Tuesday evening December 3, 2019). Immediately after, we will be able in 24 hours to present a global report of our work », he announced.

Mr. Joseph recalled that the Marriott Accord Monitoring Committee was tasked with working on the choice of a judge at the Court of Cassation to replace the Head of State, the choice of a Prime Minister and formation of the transitional government. Then the formation of the transitional government’s action control body and finally the preparation of a roadmap for the transition and the duration of the transition.

The Monitoring Committee is currently preparing the conclusion of its working report which will take into account all these points », said Génard Joseph.

At the Marriott Hotel, on Friday, November 8th, the plural opposition, representatives of the Gateway, the Alternative Consensual, Mache Kontre, the Political Forum, Fanmi Lavalas, the private business sector, the defense organizations human rights, the diaspora, young people, women, the Petrochallengers, the voodoo sector, trade unionists, among others, have come together to discuss a way out of the crisis that the country has been going through for 18 months.

At the end of the meeting, the political opposition called for the immediate and unconditional resignation of President Moïse, the establishment of a transitional government and an entity to control government action.
