In short, Mr. Préval, who advocates dialogue among others, unity and solidarity in his speech, called irresponsible citizens favor the immediate withdrawal of troops from the UN mission.
Preval criticized for his speech
Seemingly stunned, Senator Artibonite, Youri Latortue, also present in Marchand-Dessalines, said that the speech of René Préval is contradictory. "He praised MINUSTAH as he had hoped the withdrawal of UN troops before the end of its mandate", said the parliamentarian, who maintains his argument in favor of the new Public Security Force. Like other political party leaders, he denounced the fact that a withdrawal plan MINUSTAH is not comprehensive yet.
Himmler Rebu GREH of him, calls the president a liar. "President Préval knows that he is lying. It determines the departure of MINUSTAH to strengthen the capacity of the national police to ensure security of the State, when he knows that this is not the role of the police institution, the former reacts Colonel on the airwaves Monday Magik 9. Professor Christian Rousseau and Mr. Hannibal Coffy, speaking on Vision 2000, severely criticized, too, different aspects of the speech of the Head of State.
In any case, the native Marmalade calls on all sectors, particularly the political parties to work together so that there is, he says, a real political stability in the country. "There must have political stability so that the roads are constructed so that the fertilizer is available at a lower price for the foreign army to leave the country ... "Mr. Préval conditions. Before going to St. Michel, where he assessed the construction of 40 km of road from this county to Marchand-Dessalines, Mr. Preval took the opportunity to take a walk in the city where work Dessalines d 'infrastructure is underway.
The message from the pastor
"If you commemorate the 203rd anniversary of the death of the Emperor without achieving all the objectives he had mentioned, you do nothing serious," says unequivocally the pastor of the parish dating back nearly a century half by the Reverend Father Marc Eddy Dessalines, speaking to leaders in his homily.
"We have political and economic problems, but morality is one of our biggest problems, denounced the priest. What belongs to a community is monopolized by a small group. "This situation, says he, gives rise to much frustration. On the other hand, Father Marc Eddy Dessalines was pleased that the restoration of several forts and old houses are underway in this historic city, according to many, deserves attention from officials.
