At approximately midnight, Senate Speaker Senator Joseph Lambert said, "The Senate must remain the Mecca of democracy in Haiti. This evening the Senators assembly experienced the contradiction before admitting the report of the special commission that checked the pieces of members of the ministerial cabinet. In a political assembly, it is necessary to know how to assume the necessary leadership. To cultivate the firmness in the serenity and always remember that one is not more than the 'primus inter pares'. Senate President, I experienced it tonight... Haiti is waiting..."
