A dozen political entities require the resignation of Opont

"[...] The democrats of this country will not easily accept your presence at the head of the CEP to complete the electoral coupstarted on 9 August. The signatories have no intention of abandoning the struggle for democracy and even less in the electoral field to PHTK, to Bouclier [...] we are not condemned to persist in error or accept once again that in your arrogance you seek to impose this masquerade to the Haitian people by saying you satisfied with the ballot stuffing, assassinations, violence, ransacking of pooling offices and voting centers, of armed interventions of numerous candidates of parties close to power [...] the hasty blessing of a complacent international community, condescending and at the limit contemptuous, will not be able to make the unacceptable acceptable for the Haitians [...] ssentially write the signatories of this letter, which does not however require the departure of other advisers.
