Haiti: Crisis in the Senate - Senators Still Unable to Elect a new Senate President

Haiti, news from the Senate floor... NO QUORUM... The Senators still cannot come to together in a full session Thursday to elect a new senate president. Only 13 Senators out of 23 were present; 16 is the required number for the vote to be carried out.

KREYOL: Men Nouvel... Haiti - KRIZ nan Senat Repiblik la... Jiskaprezan, Senatè yo paka chwazi yon president... Yo eseye ayè Jeudi a, pa gen Quorum... Group minoritè a kanpe an Zoe Blood... Kisa ou panse de sa???

One of the senators interviewed by the media after the session was postponed spoke of the reason why there is a stand still in the senate.

It seems the minority group in the senate want the presidency of the senate under the claim that there will be a monopoly in the powers of the state otherwise. The minority does not want chief of state, the prime minister, and the president of the senate to be all on the same side, politically speaking.

What do you think about that?

Ki kote neg sa yo prale ak peyi.Depi senk an yap goumen pou fe yon eleksyon.

De tout fason mwen dako ak G9 la pou pouvwa pa rete nan men yon sel gwoup, men g9 la dwe konnen ke yo pa gen majorite.

Menm si prezidan an ta soti nan g9 la, sa pap fe anyen pou yo.
