HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Haiti has operated under successive transitional governance frameworks since the 2021
assassination of President Moise. The CPT was established in April 2024 under the Montana Accord
framework following the forced resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry. The council's nine-member
structure represented an attempt to distribute executive power across political factions, but internal
divisions and corruption allegations undermined its effectiveness throughout its mandate.
