Haiti - Politic : OPL position facing the new political situation

In a note of the party "Organization of People in Struggle" (OPL), its coordinator, Sauveur Pierre Etienne, presented on the eve of the installation of Prime Minister, Evans Paul https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-12963-haiti-flash-official-evans-paul-installed-at-the-primature.html , the position of the OPL, facing the new political situation and sent a message to President Martelly and Prime Minister Paul.

For Sauveur Étienne "President Michel Martelly and Prime Minister Evans Paul are faced with an Cornelian drama : to defend their partisan interests or those of the community [...] they must choose between work for the impossible survival of a dying system and the emergence of a new system called to out Haiti of the underdevelopment."

Recalling that the country only has a few months to prove to the world that despite our divisions, Haitians have the ability to work together, he said that "the nation-state will not crystallize only if we can change the relationship state/society, make of the political stability, the institutionalization of the political system, structuring of political parties and of economic development the cardinal virtues of the republican system, of the modern society to construct by Haitians from the inside and the Diaspora."

Later in his note it says "OPL intends signify to the heads of power and all of Haitian society that only political wisdom, the spirit of dialogue and moderation can lead to the creation of favorable conditions for the organization of free, credible, transparent and inclusive elections".

Regarding the number of foreign interventions in the Haitian crisis, OPL invites politicians to recover, stating that "[...] the time has come to see our inability, our irresponsibility and our political infantilism and pull ourselves together to hoist us up to the crucial requirements of the hour."

Recall that Sauveur Étienne had publicly stated in favor of the installation of Evans Paul without parliamentary ratification, a position shared by other leaders of the Party.
