Without a presidency, without institutions capable of maintaining order, records follow one another. And they are now leading part of the population to take matters into their own hands, to do justice itself with all the excesses that this entails.

Chloé Lauvergnier tells us more.
In this program, we will also hear from Dave Fils-Aimé, founder and executive director of Baskètbòl pou Ankadre Lajenès. An association that aims to prevent young people from falling into gangs through sport – in this case basketball.
Also in the summary of this program: the United States, where the debt reaches 31.4 trillion dollars and continues to increase every second.
