Haiti - FLASH : Attempt to revoke the PM defeated by the USA

Wednesday January 21, 2026, Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé narrowly escaped dismissal, a resolution for his dismissal had the support of 5 members of the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT), before Advisor Smith Augustin finally reversed his decision and refused to sign. The non-majority signatories of this resolution are the Advisers : Fritz Alphonse Jean, Leslie Voltaire, Louis Gérald Gilles and Edgard Leblanc Fils.

In a correspondence addressed to the members of the Council, Laurent Saint-Cyr President pro tempore and Coordinator of the CPT writes "[...] I am opposed to any resolution aimed at calling into question governmental stability in the run-up to February 7 and denounces any attempt to rush or take major decisions without a broad, structured and truly representative dialogue of the different sectors of national life, including the diversity of political sensitivities having enjoyed, to varying degrees, electoral legitimacy proven. As major institutional deadlines approach for the Nation, any initiative likely to fuel instability, confusion or a breakdown of trust carries serious risks for the country. Haiti cannot afford either non-concerted decisions or short-sighted political calculations [...]" Download the entire correspondence of Saint-Cyr (PDF in French) : https://www.haitilibre.com/docs/correspondance-Laurent-SAINT-CYR-CPT.pdf

But what probably caused this attempt at revocation to fail was the very serious direct threat from the American Embassy to the members of the CPT who wrote unequivocally in their correspondence "The U.S. objective for Haiti remains the establishment of baseline security and stability. The U.S. would regard any effort to change the composition of the government by the non-elected TPC at this late stage in its tenure to be an effort to undermine that objective and as such null and void. The U.S. would consider anyone supporting such a disruptive step favoring the gangs to be acting contrary to the interests of the United States, the region, and the Haitian people and will act accordingly."
