HISTORICAL CONTEXT
CARICOM has mediated Haiti political transition since April 2024 when Transitional Presidential
Council was established with two-year mandate expiring February 7, 2026. Eminent Persons Group
has conducted multiple rounds of shuttle diplomacy and stakeholder consultations but political
parties and civil society organizations have failed to reach consensus on post-CPT governance
framework. CPT internal dysfunction including failed attempt to dismiss Prime Minister Alix Didier
Fils-Aime has undermined institutional credibility.
