HISTORICAL CONTEXT

Haiti's transitional governance framework was established following Ariel Henry's forced resignation in 2024. The CPT was designed as a temporary collective executive pending elections. The February 7, 2027 date represents the constitutional endpoint for the transition period. Previous Haitian prime ministers have faced removal through combinations of political pressure, international withdrawal of support, and popular protests when unable to build consensus among competing factions.
