The stay of Leslie Voltaire, a member of Haiti’s Transitional Presidential Council (CPT), in Paris is raising serious concerns.

For four days, this key political figure stayed in a suite at a five-star hotel on Avenue Kléber, at a total cost of €14,000, without causing the slightest reaction in the community media, according to journalist Rudy Sanon on his YouTube platform.

This indifference is all the more shocking as Haiti faces an acute humanitarian crisis.

The under-equipped police force struggles to fight gang violence, while thousands of civil servants live with the uncertainty of unpaid salaries.

Hospitals and schools are shutting down, leaving the population in unbearable hardship.

In this bleak context, Voltaire’s ostentatious luxury in Paris appears not only as a provocation but also as a symbol of the elite’s failure to care about the country’s harsh realities.

The Haitian press holds a crucial responsibility: to inform, question, and expose. Yet, in this particular case, the silence is deafening.

Media outlets that claim to be engaged seem more focused on festive events than on investigating and exposing abuses of power.

Voltaire’s luxury should not overshadow the misery of a people who deserve dignity.
