The rapid speed of events and information on Haiti is so astonishing that every story becomes obsolete within minutes and replaced by another as a vicious cycle of competing stories emerge about every minute, each one being replaced by new and more outlandish ones. On Monday July 19, 2021, the interim Prime Minister, Claude Joseph, who had been replaced when the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse took place, decided to hand over power to his successor, who was named just days before the assassination. Doctor Ariel Henry was scheduled to be sworn in as Prime Minister the day after the President was assassinated creating a power vacuum and increasing animosity between the two competing politicians. After days of discussions, Claude Joseph apparently decided, in an interview with the Washington Post, to hand over the reins of power to Ariel Henry. The new government is expected to be formed with Ariel Henry as the newly named interim Prime Minister, and the outgoing interim Prime Minister Claude Joseph keeping his portfolio as the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The official statement announcing this new change in government stated that there will not be a President and the new government will be tasked to organize general elections as soon as possible. This decision came less than 48 hours after the Core Group (comprised of the Ambassadors of Brazil, Canada, Germany, Spain, United States, European Union and the UN Secretary General’s envoy) called on Ariel Henry to form an inclusive and consensual government to address the issues he was called to tackle before the fateful demise of President Jovenel Moïse . In a statement made public, the Core Group concluded that as the country faces serious dangers, their wish as a group is for all political, economic and civil society actors in the country to fully support the authorities in their efforts to restore security throughout the country, including areas currently plagued by gang violence, to organize free, fait transparent and credible parliamentary and presidential elections as quickly as possible to ensure that basic government and public services are provided to all.
