Members of Haiti’s Presidential Transitional Council (CPT) would be discussing the allocation of departure indemnities following the end of the transition scheduled for February 7, 2026, according to information reported by MétroNôme, citing what it describes as an official source.

The amounts reportedly under discussion range between 500,000 and 600,000 U.S. dollars, with some members allegedly seeking higher sums. The same source claims that internal pressure may have been exerted on the Prime Minister, including alleged threats of removal should such compensation not be granted.

No official document confirming the existence of these discussions has been made public, and the institutions concerned have not issued any formal statement responding to the claims.

These reported discussions come amid a severe national crisis marked by widespread displacement, escalating insecurity, and mounting humanitarian needs. Public finances remain under extreme strain, raising questions about governance priorities during the transitional period.

Observers note that if such indemnities were to be formally proposed or approved, they would require a clear legal framework, public disclosure, and institutional oversight to comply with principles of transparency and accountability.

Until further clarification is provided, the information should be treated with caution. The newsroom will continue to monitor developments and publish any official responses or corroborating evidence as they become available.
