"[...] The ADIH condemns the behavior of violent agitators who take advantage of socio-political unrest to settle issues outside the framework of demands of those who announced the said demonstrations.

ADIH maintains that the Private Sector, one of the pillars of the national economy, by creating jobs that it provides to the country, cannot accept violations of the rule of law through endless acts of destruction of life and property.

These actions carried out against many companies, including the company UNIVERSAL MOTORS https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-33264-haiti-flash-violence-vandalism-and-looting-in-port-au-prince.html too often without remedies, will only increase the reluctance of more than one to want to invest in Haiti despite its great potential.

In these circumstances, the ADIH sympathizes with all the victims in human and material lives.
