Jerry Tardieu, the coordinator of the movement "on the march" and former deputy, says on France 24 that he has never experienced such a difficult situation in Haiti.
He describes a country in the hands of gangs, who not only loot and kill but now openly dictate their law to political power.
The former deputy denounces the collusion between these bands and certain political and economic elites.
The assassination of President Jovenel Moïse is, for him, the symptom of this phenomenon, which Moïse himself widely encouraged and of which he ended up being a victim.
Our guest thinks that the kidnappings of religious and the attacks on places of worship have turned the country from crime to terrorism.
He calls on the authorities to jump up, regretting the lack of grip of Prime Minister Ariel Henry.
Jerry Tardieu considers that Haiti is also a failure of the international community, despite the 15 years of UN presence and the 10 billion dollars spent.
He believes that elections can only be held under viable conditions at the end of 2022
