Police in Haiti say two Haitian Americans and more than 20 Colombians were behind the assassination of President Jovenel Moise.
The Colombian government says early investigations suggest that some of the men involved were retired members of its military.
Moise was shot dead during a raid at his home on Wednesday.
Some of the suspects have been identified, but officials are still looking for at least eight others.
Al Jazeera’s Patty Culhane reports from Washington, DC.

Wow, the US are involved! Well I am so shocked, who would have thought that?
Colombian death squad.? The head gang leader is angry that the president was taken out.? Yeah, lil sus. Sounds like someone was against a cartel idea, or was in debt to, or made enough money that they thought they could quit. Drug deal gone bad.
The Colombians are mercenaries. Someone in Haiti or USA hired them
Of course America is involved, when she put covid 19 virus out there! Now that that’s out there now no one should be concerned about this country i guess!
We know who’s responsible!
The United Nations under the command of corrupt politicians it is made of! America being the CEO! 👌🏿
This has not been good at all.
How 🤔 can YOU call 4 elections 🙄 in somebody else’s Country? The HIDDEN ✋ IS @ WORK…
SMH
Moo
Scapegoats is all they were. It’s definitely more to it.
Vaya una verguenza para el país.

Colombian millitary= sicario’s for hire
Jan yo al tiye prezidan ayisyen an yo te ka men tiye prezidan peyi pa yo tou paske yo pa gen bon ke
Wasn’t the assassinated president backed by the USA ? Everyone didn’t like that ? Now that’s he’s dead it’s USAs fault ? FML this is some left BLM logic here.
This reporter said, that COVID is spreading in HAITI and that’s a lie. Haiti has the lease cases in the West. Stop spreading lies and propaganda with sensationalize journalism. Sickening speak the truth but you’ll all suffer SPEAK THE TRUE ALWAYS. Why is Haiti desperately poor because of FRANCE trying reading that into your story next time
Very stupid of them to be blaming anyone, how was whole president assassinated, where was all the security
So they just need to take every white person to prison then. Lol. Every I, black man, can’t believe how dumb this research is.
This we didn’t call it terrorist? Because not Islam right?
LONDON’S HAS FALLEN
WHITE HOUSE DOWN
INSIDE MAN check these movies out…someone has to be in on this assassination…they bulid these movies now people r making them reality….😔
Those men did what was needed @JovenelMoise was a evil being and the universe tends to unfold itself
Cameroon problem
The bug problem in Haiti was that he wanted to change the constitution to keep him for long time as a president and to have more power. Was a inside job.
its pretty common for colombian soldiers to become cartel hitman and then gun for hire.
easy to blame other but the root cause its your own peoples.
Why is the US giving press conferences on elections in Haiti?
last time I checked everyone in Haiti were rioting on the streets trying to remove this guy. 4 weeks later it happens….I doubt most locals are mad.
what has haiti have to do with colombian ex military men? somethings not adding up
To the PRESIDENT WIFE and FAMILY .MAY you all receive JUSTICE BLESSINGS AND HEALING 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Your mother
@Tigers Wood ha ha ha good one. Now good overdose on meth again
Hitmen have always been easily procured..shame to take lives & sacrifice your own.
Psaki the sock puppet.
Bs they just asked us for troops.. More lies from this channel
DRUG CARTEL OR POLITICAL OPPOSITION CARRIED OUT ATTACK
America killed the president because he didn’t “obey” The Order of Vaxxxing the population.
Americans Gregory MEEKS,Dimitri vorbes, Maxine walters, , REGINALD boulos, all the Senate members and the black caucus must go to jail for their participation in this ki!ling.
The American embassy knew all
Americans Gregory Meeks,Maxine waters,Yvette d Clark etc are dwe in the killing of the president o the can continue with this drug smuggling and corruption
This is passe nwes
The U.S. is in on this. Look at their equipment, boots. There’s no need to call in the assistance of the U.S.. Would the U.S. call Haiti or any other country in for assistance for an investigation? These countries are weak from the top down to have and display such servile and deferent behavior. Whether it’s Mali, Haiti, Afghanistan, South Africa, Egypt, Jordan etc..
Won’t be surprised of cocaine is behind this assassination.
Only three of the assassins were killed. And who knows what the circumstances were surrounding their killing. None of the president’s bodyguard were hurt. Inside Job possibly drug money involved? Duh!
This guy was pretty much a token US puppet, so thats weird if they were involved. The US had a motive obviously and its a matter of public record that they kidnapped Aristide and don’t even let his PARTY run in elections. In other words, they run the county and this president was their guy. So thats just weird.
What i find crazy is most Haitians hated him. Now they want justice? I guess i am lost
Assassins? These guys look more like scapegoats to me
Peace be unto you…
Continuous strife in Haiti through corrupt individuals who associate with foreign influencers that insure that chaos and mayhem will continue in the region…
This Haitian strife is just another civil unrest in this world…
Through the divide and conquer Foreign Policy strategies of the American Government…
Ex-president Trump’s Administration had increased sanctions on the Venezuelan Government and its people, which prevented fuel sales to Haiti at a discounted price so that American oil companies can sell Haitian Government fuel at a higher price that led to this ultimate crisis of complete destabilization…
Yet, the American Government was putting the blame on Petrocaribe with false allegations that disrupted the fuel sales that provided the opportunity for American companies to take over the business trade…
Yet, corrupt people have always led this country with nepotism and suffered a great number of the population for their own personal egotistical, greedy, vainglorious desires…

*”Dispute with U.S. energy trader worsens Haiti’s fuel crisis”*
*April 14, 2019*
“The capital Port-au-Prince’s fragile power grid was dealt a blow when Novum Energy Trading Corp suspended shipments in February, leaving residents without electricity for days and many gas stations with no fuel at the pumps.
Novum says the government owes it $40 million in overdue payments for fuel. Haitian officials did not reply to requests for comment.
The Western Hemisphere’s poorest nation, Haiti long relied on fuel shipments from nearby OPEC member Venezuela, which offered cheap financing to several Caribbean nations to buy its gasoline, diesel and other products through a program called Petrocaribe.
But the scheme fell apart last year due to economic turmoil in Venezuela, forcing Haiti – a nation of 11 million people – to return to international markets.
Novum, which has supplied Haiti with fuel for more than four years, stepped up its shipments as the Petrocaribe deal unravelled. Novum said it supplied 80 percent of Haiti’s gasoline and diesel needs last year…
…At the height of the Petrocaribe program, Venezuelan fuel covered nearly 70 percent of Haiti’s needs. Venezuela provided long-term financing for the oil on flexible terms, with a maximum 2 percent interest rate and a two-year grace period.
Petrocaribe included a fund for infrastructure and social projects in member countries.
By April 2018, Venezuela was no longer exporting fuel to Haiti, according to documents from Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA seen by Reuters.”

“Haiti: Wife of President Jovenel Moise speaks out”
*My Own Commentary*
In this video we will see that it is evident that the US State Department was involved with this assassination and influenced the interim prime minister to be in power; the key words Mrs. Moise used was the infrastructural development projects that were funded by the Venezuelan Government Petrocaribe and the American Government prevented those projects with sanctions against the Venezuelan Government and the Petrocaribe and other entities…
This assassination allows for the Prime Minister Joseph to become president and the civil unrest will allow for him to continue with his power grab since there will be no fair elections this coming November; PM Joseph is so confident as to call for US troops to help quell the violence because there must have been deals under the radar with the American Government State Department and CIA operatives that gave him such confidence…
The American Government has very tight relations with the Columbian Government and American CIA along with DEA have continued operations, which the assassination of President Moise most likely was a part of because any other individuals who went along with this operation who were not in agreement with the assassination or a part of it were most likely murdered (many movies based on true stories and facts show these realities and documents released through many avenues to prove such things happen)…
For the American Government to send “law enforcement” to investigate the assassination is another operation to hide any evidences that could lead to the truth and to frame other individuals…
One frame-up accusation would be against any Venezuelan Government official or entity, yet, there were arrangements between President Moise and these Venezuelan Government officials and entities before the American Government sanctions created problems and then the corruption by some of the members of the Moise Administration which created more strife…
We will see more in the future…

*”US Looks Forward to Cooperating With Haiti’s Interim Prime Minister”*
*April 14, 2021*
“The U.S. is reiterating its call Wednesday for free and fair legislative and presidential elections in Haiti, hours after Prime Minister Joseph Jouthe resigned and President Jovenel Moise named Foreign Minister Claude Joseph as his replacement…
…The Moise government plans to hold a constitutional referendum in June, followed by legislative and presidential elections in September and November…”
*My Own Commentary*
It seems that the American Government has been working with the Foreign Minister/interim Prime Minister and the continued civil unrest, caused by the American Government (baffles the mind for those who are in the “know”), will interfere with these elections that were to happen in the fall of 2021…

*”Two politicians have been claiming they are in charge in Haiti. Now there are three”*
*JULY 09, 2021*
“…On Friday evening, a third man entered the picture. Joseph Lambert, the head of what remains of the Haitian Senate, said that he has been voted provisional president of the Republic of Haiti by his fellow senators…
…The chamber is the only constitutionally ordained part of government left in Haiti…
…Claude Joseph, the outgoing prime minister who had resigned, has taken charge.
Ariel Henry, the neurosurgeon Moïse had named as the new prime minister — but who has not been sworn in — has claimed he should be running the country….
…The assassination has left Haiti, already reeling from a constitutional and political crisis, in uncertainty.
There are only 10 elected officials left — all senators — because the majority of the country’s parliamentarians and all other elected officials had their terms end in January 2020…
…The Senate vote had the backing of some of the country’s political parties, which support Lambert as interim president and Henry as prime minister.
They include opposition parties and Moïse’s ruling Haitian Tèt Kale Party.
Party head Liné Balthazar was among those who signed a separate accord supporting Lambert and Henry…
…Other prominent Haitians are divided between supporting Joseph or backing a solution in which none of the people claiming the mantle of power should be in charge.
“Senator Lambert has no provisional or constitutional power to run Haiti,” said Gary Bodeau, a former president of the Lower Chamber of Parliament who supports Joseph. “One-third of the Senate cannot replace Moïse.”
There is no provision in Haiti’s constitution for a scenario in which the president dies and there are only 10 elected officials left in the entire country.
Recognizing that a president could die in office, or even be thrown out of office, the constitution was amended after the country’s catastrophic 2010 earthquake to say that the National Assembly would step in if there was a vacancy during the last two years of the president’s five-year term.
There is, however, no National Assembly right now…
…In the days since Moïse’s death, both the U.N. and the U.S. have been quick to show support for Joseph.
This has rankled other politicians in Haiti, who say neither the U.N. nor the U.S. is respecting Haiti’s laws. They fear that a politician like Lambert will want to hold onto power, rather than prepare the country for elections.
Lambert said that is not his intention.
“The resolution the Senate vote is clear,” he said. “I am provisional president until the next parliament takes its seat in January 2022.” ”

WTF! where was the President’s security?
Haiti is a joke!
Only outsiders would’ve attempted this.
They should look into the Democrats possible in this ? Benghazi all over again fits their Narrative play ball or else?
Obviously USA is behind this. Notice that US media won’t talk about it, how US citizens are involved, and other US puppets Colombian and Taiwanese. USA as always.
This is like something out of a political thriller. Crazy!!! I watch movies like this on TV, not watch it play out in real life.
It is obvious that these people were hired by forces inside the Haitian government to kill people all over the country and execute the president ,but they all have amnesia all of the sudden.
I have my doubts about my own Democratic institutions I don’t care what Joe Bozo believes or what jensaki says why don’t you send vice president Hee Haw… Like all the rest of you she won’t have any idea what to do it’d be better off if she did nothing.
Paski said free and fair election when Biden stole and committed fraud in the 2020 election. Biden is a joke.
The person behind this will get away 💯🤬
These wicked souls: uhmmmmmmm! No FEAR for God at all. What a SHAME!!!!!! Lovers of MONEY are dangerous. REPENT and BE SAVED……! For God ISN’T mocked.
Praying for the good people of Haiti. May God keep you all safe & may this pass & improve swiftly.
They look like random ppl
Sounds more like the CIA is involved in this murder.
The US government is controlled by the swamp creatures, if true same group that took out Epstein for sure.
They should have handed them to the crowd.
I doubt the interim president, why sudden situation under control ?up periscope on him
Looks like Mexican cartel and the Clintons ….
I’m making it simple. Somebody said no or somebody ripped somebody off
So you just told us they’re part of an armed gang. Where did you get this information aljazeera? Are you also becoming fake and deceptive like CNN?
the us is known for training Colombian solders
Let there be chaos for order is the dream of men
U.S. is always involved in some assassination or some election fraud some where in the world. Haha.
movie coming
Dominicans are Racist
The US should help Haiti economically since there is a massive Haitian immigration wave. Then you Americans will complain about more Immigrants then.
Uncertainty in deed 😎
26 Colombians could hardly expect to blend in with the crowd in Haiti. They killed Moise at 1am. They were probably supposed to be out of the country before sunrise. It would seem that whoever was supposed to pick them up after the murder didn’t come.
They assasinated the president, but had no way of exiting the country?
This is a cover up! The real assassins are laughing at you
I feel like these are random guys they scooped up off the street.
Look like they been abandoned…. CIA operation?
Cela faisait plusieurs années, qu’ils voulaient lui faire la peau 😝 Il a trahi Hugo Chavez. Le Venezuela 🇻🇪 lui vend du pétrole afin de sortir l’île de la crise économique et ce corrompu s’est mis les marges réalisées dans la poche au lieu de lancer des projets de développement économiques et sociaux d’envergure (Caraïbes Petroleum) 😊 😋
B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T!
Why would it take 28 hitmen, something smells fishy!
If you want the truth just torture the guard’s who abandoned their post, before they are assassinated next. Seems like a great place to start.
This is a National Shame for our Colombian people, I extend my condolences to all people of Haiti, very difficult and complicated situation, but few bad people does not mean what majority is.
Why the white house up in Haiti business and talking bout they going to send vaccine when the then president said Haitian blend with mother natural so they don’t need the vaccine
