A Haitian bishop just got slammed for trying to play politics during a crisis. Jean Henry Céant publicly shut down the offer from Mgr Pierre André Dumas to mediate the transition of power for the Presidential Transitional Council. The ex-government head claims the religious leader lacks the neutrality needed to fix the mess before the mandate expires next month.

Dumas told Laurent Saint-Cyr that fifteen different groups begged him to step in and save the nation from total anarchy. He insists he only accepted the gig to stop things from spiraling out of control. However, Céant argues the clergyman already picked sides historically, which disqualifies him from being a fair referee.

The letter specifically points to a statement Dumas signed previously that condemned people before they even faced trial. Céant believes this baggage makes the bishop a participant rather than a neutral observer. He urged the council to toss the proposal because it feels exclusionary and unlikely to bring actual peace.

This drama unfolds while the Caribbean Community pushes everyone to stop being selfish and focus on national survival. They worry about the constant delays in finding a real solution. Céant finished his rant by telling the bishop to stick to praying and uniting the faithful instead of getting his hands dirty in the political mud.
