At the press conference after his meeting with President Martelly, Ban Ki-moon declared "[...] I am very much encouraged by your strong commitment to the electoral system by having elections, legislative elections, in October this year. At the same time, I am concerned that there is still some disagreement between the executive and legislative branches but I am sure that under your leadership this will be solved and the elections will be conducted in an inclusive, credible and democratic way. The holding of inclusive elections this year is essential for the continuity of parliament in 2015, and for the consolidation of democracy and the rule of law. I therefore urge all political leaders to work towards the holding of fair, credible and transparent elections this year. Political stability is a key prerequisite for Haiti to continue on the path of progress. [...] The United Nations will continue to accompany the Government and people of Haiti throughout this journey."

Whatever I say today will not lessen the despair you have felt over the loss of your loved ones. [...] My wife and I have come here to grieve with you. As a father and grandfather, and as a mother and grandmother, we feel tremendous anguish at the pain you have had to endure. I want to assure you that the United Nations and its partners are strongly committed to ending the epidemic as quickly as possible.
