President Moise addressed the nation on Saturday night following the resignation of Prime Minister Jack Guy Lafontant in the wake of violent public protest over a proposal to increase fuel prices. The protest continued despite the decision to scrap the proposed increase.
The President, in Saturday night’s address cautioned that “violence does not walk hand in hand with development and democracy.”
