Haitian politicians get balls

Wtf... A very rash decision to terminate a leader...... The Love of Many have waxed very cold.. It was written many many years ago

President of Haiti, Jovenel Moïse has been assassinated in his private residence in an attack by a group of unidentified individuals, Aljazeera reports.

According to a statement by the country’s interim prime minister, Claude Joseph, who called the killing a “hateful, inhumane and barbaric act”, the armed individuals attacked the private residence of Moise and shot him dead.

Meanwhile, First Lady Martine Moïse has been hospitalized following the attack early Wednesday, July 7.

Speaking on a local radio station, the prime minister said the attack was carried out by an “armed commando group” that included foreign elements.

Joseph said in a statement quoted in media outlets; “Around one o’clock in the morning, during the night of Tuesday 6th to Wednesday 7th of July 2021, a group of unidentified individuals, including some speaking Spanish, attacked the private residence of the president and fatally injured the head of state.”

The Prime Minister added that “all measures are being taken to guarantee the continuity of the state and to protect the nation.”

The attack occurred amid a rising wave of politically linked violence in the impoverished Caribbean nation. The nation of more than 11 million people had grown increasingly unstable and disgruntled under Moïse’s rule.

Its economic, political, and social woes have deepened, with gang violence spiking heavily in the capital of Port-au-Prince, inflation spiraling and food and fuel becoming scarcer at times in a country where 60% of the population makes less than $2 a day. These troubles come as Haiti still tries to recover from the devastating 2010 earthquake and Hurricane Matthew that struck in 2016.

53-year-old Moïse had been ruling by decree for more than two years after the country failed to hold elections, which led to Parliament being dissolved. Opposition leaders have accused him of seeking to increase his power, including approving a decree that limited the powers of a court that audits government contracts and another that created an intelligence agency that answers only to the president.

While Haiti’s opposition claims Moïse should have stepped down on 7 February to coincide with the fifth anniversary of 2015 elections that were canceled and then re-run a year later because of allegations of fraud, Moïse, and his supporters rejected that argument, saying he only took power in 2017 after winning the re-run.
