Communiqué of the Campesino Platform 4G Kontre

The 4G Kontre platform, composed of the peasant movements MPP, Tèt Kole, KROS and MPNKP, extends a warm greeting to all the organisations participating in the Patriotic Forum. Today is one month since more than 250 people inaugurated this historic event in search of a national agreement to solve the crisis that the country is experiencing. One month after that event the crisis of the system has become an unacceptable disaster. The popular masses are fed up and continue to rebel even more firmly against the situation in which the PHTK party has thrown the country. If Jovenel Moïse does not decide to leave power quickly, the people will have to get rid of him. There is no possibility of dialogue with a criminal and completely irresponsible president. We demand that all the people and all the national and international institutions supporting the president force his resignation, because the later it happens the more burdensome it will be for the popular classes and for the whole nation.

We point out that since we launched the call for unity in February there have been great rapprochements within the opposition, that much progress has been made, but that agreement on how to proceed after the resignation of Jovenel Moïse has not yet been reached. We invite all the sectors of the national life to a meeting this weekend which unravels the knots which prevent reaching the great national agreement which the nation demands.

In the situation in which the country finds itself, considering the suffering of the popular masses of the countryside and the city, no sector can aspire to control the process of political transition, nor can it remain blind or insensitive in the face of the humanitarian catastrophe that worsens every day.

We remind all sectors of national life and the international community that Jovenel Moïse is no longer the president of the Haitian people. There are no conditions to forge a government of national union with the criminals of the executive power, nor with the parliamentarians who sold their votes for dollars and perks by ratifying the prime minister appointed by Moïse, Mr. Fritz William Michel. That is too much. No dialogue or negotiation will take place with liars, thieves and criminals.

The 4G Kontre platform expresses its condolences to the family of Mark Enes Phanord, victim of the repression in the community of La Pointe in the Northwest region, and also to all the families of the victims that this government has left everywhere.

We recognize the effort and courage of the people who occupied the streets in every corner of the country. We must continue until the definitive fall of Moïse. Under his government, the shortage of fuel has become permanent, hunger persists, the costs of living rise more and more and the workers receive miserable wages. Moïse will never prosecute the squanderers of Petrocaribe funds and with him there will never be justice for the massacres of La Saline, Carrefour Feuille, Martissant and all the popular neighbourhoods where the PHTK regime shed the blood of our compatriots. Under this government the future of our young people is seriously threatened and the ecological crisis will lead the country to destruction.

We insist, therefore, on our call for a real national agreement to build a transitional government after the departure of Jovenel Moïse.
