However, Jimmy Cherizier—also known as “Barbecue” to everyone—has declared that further bloodshed is about to break out and that the current stoppage of hostilities is entirely coincidental.
Under the auspices of CARICOM, the Caribbean Economic Union of Countries, political parties in Haiti are attempting to establish a transitional council that will assume national governance upon the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who is presently in the United States.
Cherizier stated that they “respect CARICOM a lot,” but he disregarded the organization, calling it a smokescreen to keep “corrupt politicians” and “corrupt oligarchs” in power and unrepresentative of the concerns of the common people.
He maintained that his gang alliance and he must be involved in the peace process for the situation to progress.
