The lack of cohesion needed to enable the Presidential Transition Council to honor its commitments to the Haitian population continues to raise concerns. Actors from different sectors of national life struggle to believe that the advisors will be able to transcend themselves to prioritize only the nation's interest. "A head of government has departed; we need to establish replacement structures. Why make it complicated when it can be simple? I don't know where the initial idea came from, but the international community followed it in total ignorance of the anthropology of power in Haiti. We have created a monster with seven, if not nine heads. Considering all the political disagreements we have experienced over the years, I don't see how we can have an executive that can agree on a series of decisions. However, given the economic and security situation, we need quick and clear decisions and a defined course of action," Michèle Oriol argued.

The fact that the presidential advisors were unable to choose a president smoothly has reinforced the position of pessimists. "We have given birth to a political solution whose failure could have been anticipated. It shows that right from the first decision to be made, discord set in immediately. I have no hope that the situation will improve. We need to try to find solutions that align more with Haitian political tradition; there are legal references. Here, we are improvising procedures day by day, or at least, we disagree with certain procedures because we believe there are hidden interests. It's very complicated, while there are real daily problems that need to be solved, and meanwhile, the exodus of the middle class continues," remarked Michèle Oriol of the CIAT, who advocates a return to the unamended 1987 Constitution. She believes, contrary to the opinions of some Haitians, that the situation could worsen if nothing is done to address it. Mrs. Oriol believes that many problems of this transition stem from the fact that they are created by the amended 1987 Constitution. "All the wise ones had predicted that it would cause problems," argued Mrs. Oriol.
