 SecState Rice on Elections in Haiti, 9 Feb
Elections in Haiti
Secretary Condoleezza Rice
Washington, DC
February 9, 2006
I congratulate the Haitian people for demonstrating their commitment to democracy by voting in large numbers on February 7. Haitians can take great pride in the success of these elections. I also applaud the Interim Government of Haiti, the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP), the United Nations, MINUSTAH and the Organization of American States for organizing this successful election and assisting the people of Haiti to freely elect their leaders.
It is important that Haiti’s citizens and political parties respect the final results when they are announced and support the democratic process as Haiti moves from an interim government to an elected one. We will continue to support the people of Haiti as they progress toward a transparent and stable democracy.
