The visit to London by Presidential Advisor Laurent Saint-Cyr, presented as a crucial step to rally international support for Haiti, raises serious questions.
Saint-Cyr claims participation in a conference at the prestigious Chatham House institute. Yet, no tangible evidence supports this assertion.
No mention of Saint-Cyr or a Haitian delegation appears in the reports of recent major Chatham House events, such as the “London Conference 2025” (June 19–20) or the “Security and Defence Conference.”
There is also no indication of a specific invitation for a separate event.
This opacity casts a shadow over the initiative. Is it a genuine diplomatic breakthrough or a staged event for domestic consumption?
In the context of a profound crisis and with his assumption of the CPT presidency in August approaching, Mr. Saint-Cyr must provide concrete proof of the effectiveness and reality of his efforts.
