Me Gédéon Jean, Executive Director of the Center for Analysis and Research in Human Rights (CARDH), emphasized that understanding the context that gave rise to the PTC is crucial to grasp the challenges of this governance formula. Haiti, according to the human rights advocate, marked by decades of dictatorship under the Duvaliers, struggles to establish a solid democracy. This constant struggle to emerge from the crisis has led to a series of improvised, often ineffective formulas to overcome political and socio-economic obstacles.

"It is essential not to lose sight of the context that created the Presidential Transition Council and especially the fragility of the democratic process. We have not succeeded in building democracy after the Duvalier dictatorship, which puts us in a cycle of crises, inventing formulas each time to get by. The first task of the Presidential Council must be the restoration of institutional order linked to the democratic process. At the same time, it must work on restoring security to address the problem of the population's misery," said Me Gédéon Jean on Magik 9 on Tuesday, May 7, 2024.
