David Granger, Chairman of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), welcomes the democratic renewal represented by the inauguration of the 58th President of the Republic of Haiti, His Excellency Jovenel Moïse.

"The Caribbean is not only a zone of peace from a strategic point of view in terms of the absence of war but it is also a zone of Constitutional stability. There is predictability and we don’t want to see that there are elements in any Member State, which disrupt the Constitutional process, [or] which use extra legal means to seize power or delay the holding of elections. There have been delays here but Haiti has finally come through and I am very happy to be here to put the stamp of approval on behalf of the entire Caribbean Community on those elections and the duly elected President Moise."
