The signatories of the September 11 Agreement, promoted by Prime Minister Ariel Henry, and their opponents of the Montana consensus are analyzing at a Port-au-Prince hotel, although the agenda of the meeting is unknown, the second since May when the talks were abruptly stopped, without public explanation.

The meeting is held amid a deteriorating security climate with the current gang confrontations that left 89 dead, 16 missing, 74 wounded and 127 houses burned, according to a report by the National Network for the Defense of Human Rights.

It also takes place a week before the first anniversary of Henry’s inauguration, in which he promised to maintain the meetings with the diverse sectors of the country, to reach an inclusive agreement and acknowledged the serious situation of the country.

While the political forces continue without yielding in their positions, the gangs impose the law, control almost 60 percent of Port-au-Prince and impede the free movement of people and goods.
