Assassination of the President : Words by Laurent Lamothe

"Today marks the 53rd month since President Jovenel Moïse was taken from us. Time passes, but neither the pain, nor the questions, nor the quest for truth fade. We remember a man who deeply believed that Haiti could rise again, despite the storms, despite the threats, despite the isolation. His voice has been silenced, but his struggle lives on. As Nelson Mandela said, 'Death is nothing, but to live defeated and without glory is to die every day.' 53 months later, we refuse to live defeated. We continue to demand justice, truth, and dignity for Jovenel," Laurent Lamothe.
