A delegation of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) continues [5 September] its visit to Haiti and is scheduled to meet with the signatories of the Kingston Declaration, as well as representatives of other political parties. The Group of Eminent Personalities appointed by the regional organization to serve as mediators in the Haitian crisis, held the day before a meeting with Prime Minister Ariel Henry and the members of the High Transitional Council (HCT). [...] In general terms, the Caricom delegation has priority issues for discussion such as the recomposition of the HCT, constitutional reform, as well as security and the establishment of a public security government. Some local media also indicate that the emissaries of the regional body have a proposal for an agreement to end the prolonged political stalemate and allow the constitution of a transitional national unity administration. [...] The text proposes a balance of power between the executive actors, includes accountability through the HCT and other structures, and encourages an electoral process and the reform of state and judicial institutions.
