Haiti Elections - OAS says adopt El Rancho Accord and Hold Elections...

The Permanent Council of the Organization of American States (OAS, OEA in French) adopted Wednesday a Declaration calling on the three branches of government of Haiti to comply with the agreement knows as El Rancho and to call legislative and municipal elections by the end of 2014... Will the G6 Senators comply? Let's wait and see...

The OAS is worried that if there are no elections by the end of the hear that "Haiti will be left without a Senate, therefore we'll be left without a constitutional institution."

OAS is calling all parties fully honor "their political commitments as well as the legal and constitutional obligations to facilitate the speedy organization of elections necessary for the renewal of the mandates of legislative and municipal authorities"; and urges all state powers "to continue the dialogue in order to fulfill, as a matter of urgency, their obligations under the Constitution and the El Rancho Accord for the purpose of ensuring the holding of elections in 2014."

Read the press release about this declaration on the OAS web site.

It is very sad for the OAS to be the one to observe that: "on the first of January if there are no elections Haiti will be left without a Senate, therefore we'll be left without a constitutional institution".

It is a way for them to say we will choose your senators for you just we have done for your current president.

We do not see "country", only selfish
