"In this year 2023, we will have to learn to trust each other. And I ask you to take me at my word when I speak of my Government's desire to do everything possible to reconstitute our democratic institutions. It is not with mistrust that we assemble a team to face together the dangers that hang over our common homeland.

All true democrats should seize the opportunity offered to them to join the national consensus and contribute together with the government to the definition of the roadmap which will include the strategies and actions to be implemented for the organization of the next elections. "ki dwe fèt san pas pouki, nan transparans".

We intend to carry out several initiatives simultaneously. The judicial system should see the Court of Cassation rehabilitated to function with a sufficient number of judges, the Superior Council of the Judiciary completed. A Provisional Electoral Council will be set up. His task will be to plan and propose to the government a reasonable timetable for the organization of the next popular consultations.

I reiterate gtont of you my commitment to ensure that no side is favored.

Together we will put all these structures in place without force where everyone can trust him.

Together we can do many beautiful things for Haiti. I invite everyone to come and participate in this great combination.

I express for this new year, the wish that our pupils, our students and our teachers can return to school and university, from January 3rd in order to catch up, as much as possible, the days of classes missed since the start of the school year.

I wish all the families who for several months have had to leave their homes due to insecurity. I sincerely hope that this year, they will be able to return to their respective homes.

I have a special thought for those who are not free to travel and who will not have the opportunity to spend the holidays with their families.

Wishes of courage and prosperity to all women and businessmen in the formal and informal sectors who have experienced difficult situations in recent months and who, despite everything, have not given up.

I want to tell those who have had to close their doors under the unbearable pressure of armed gangs, that we are working so that they can resume their activities."
