Transitional council edit

Transitional Council edit

After first announcing their withdrawal from the transitional council, on 20 March, Pitit Dessalines decided to participate and Jean-Charles Moïse named Emmanuel Vertilaire on advice from the National Network of Farmers.[1]

On 24 March, Dominique Dupuy, who had replaced the only other woman on the council--Marie Ghislaine Mompremier--four days earlier,[1] resigned from the council after receiving death threats and becoming the target of misogynistic comments. She was replaced by Smith Augustin.[2]
