HAITI: Anger builds as Moïse is buried
International delegations were forced to cut short their attendance at the funeral of the late president Jovenel Moïse (2017-2021), which took place on 23 July in his hometown of Cap Haïtien, Haiti’s second largest city, after shots were fired and protests staged in the vicinity and on the roads from the capital Port-au-Prince. The violence reflects frustration over the unanswered questions regarding Moïse’s assassination and demands for justice; the perceived involvement of Haiti’s elite; and familiar complaints regarding foreign meddling in Haiti’s internal affairs.
