Al Jazeera has spoken exclusively to Haiti’s most powerful gang leader.
Armed groups now run large parts of the country and have filled a power vacuum left by the assassination of President Jovenel Moise in July.
Al Jazeera’s Rob Reynolds has more from Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

#Haiti
Another aspiring warlord.
It’s hard to see how horrible 95% of Haitian people suffering year after year decides after decides suffering never stops
Decades after decades
They like it like that !!
Maybe they should better themselves? Just a thought.
That ring belong to nwo/masonry
They call him barbecue because he burns people alive, he also burns his victim’s bodies after a killing. Every Haitian knows this. The people in this video are playing along because they’re scared.
This guy talks about people starving and being poor and yet, he is FAT! He is another corrupted man from another corrupt system.
The size of his stomach should be a warning to the people: do not vote for him!
You guys should do a documentary on the Clinton family and the Clinton Foundation corruption in Haiti. Should be interesting !!! 🤔🤔🤔
I like a lot what he is saying but without knowing any backstory nor having personally ever set foot in Haiti I’m going to pass on this guy.
The whole world now know you by face and DNA
So what?
The most powerful gang leader in Haiti or in the region in general is the US.
Ladies and Gentz the media is at it again! Normalizing a thug as they normalized the taliban and anyone else the powers that be want to be accepted by the masses
Aljazeera you are part of the problem because you interviewed that criminel and a kidnapper
If so powerful, can he rescue those 17 kidnapped people?
Why would he fight fellow haitians for white people. Missionaries need to stop corrupting poor people with their jesus cult.
@ALEX SKATIT exactly!
Is Al Jazzeera trying to promote this criminal as a hero? A guy that kidnap and kills his own people for ransoms of money?
Haite country people please com india we give sir please
Racism is wide spread in india
people get killed for eating Beef
@Bodween alex food eating is your chaice lission parashurama and Dronacharya stores they fight one cow that is why people telling not eat beep cow is mother of all gods gomatha beep eating is your choice
Please list of problems solve one by one
Banks over draft facilities please
Good coverage getting an interview with BBQ during Haiti’s current crisis.
Vive Jimmy Cherizier aka Barbeque. We the Haitian diaspora support and love you.
Can he be trusted?
@Ken Johnston I trust him more than I trust those Haitian politicians…..all they do is line their pockets. And 99 percent of them are corrupt. In fact they are the ones supplying the weapons in the ghetto.
@BSN 2 DNP so you trust someone whose burned up innocent ppl kicked families out for gang territory he’s no different.
For reals though we’re we watching a hostile take over of a city and your reading like it’s a comic book
I am an Haïtian living in the capital. For those of you who don’t know where his nickname comes from. They call him Barbecue because when he kills you he burns 🥵 you.. However ,many times he called on the radio to say , that’s because his mom used to sell barbecue and there were other people called jimmy, to make the difference ,they said jimmy “barbecue” ,ever since he got this nickname. Whether it’s true or not this man is not a priest ,he doesn’t play with his guns..
Put him in charge and see what he does. He can hardly do worst then any of the other so called alternatives.
Sounds good
I agree. Let him run haiti like a dictatorship. Even if he genocides tens of thousands of Haitians. It would probably be for the best.
BBQ = BURNED PEOPLES ALIVE IN DELMAS 6 …HE DONT PLAY IS COUSIN IS KIDDNAPER G9 ITS GROUP GANG
Guns for gangs in Haiti: CIA front companies: Global Dynasty Corps; Junior Joseph, Jimy Joseph from Orlando Florida, and James Anzalone the president of Compliance Assurance LLC, Lake Worth, FL. Arm the opposition or destabilize a country.
this leader is flashing his Freemason ring. Do you think he a working for the people of Haiti? Freemasons work for their higher power ; Satan.
Wow, his belly has gotten bigger since the last time I’ve seen him on video ( like two months ago). Also, he looks like he aged like a decade.
He’s killed innocent ppl by barbequing them.
president also kills innocent people, can you show me the difference please?
Hard to believe a man word with weapon.
Al Jazeera giving criminals a stage once again.
BTW. Judging by his stomach he hasn’t shared much of his BBQ with his neighbors.What makes anyone think he will share wealth with the poor if he was made president?.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
U.S SPECIAL FORCES WILL TAKE HIM OUT EASY
hey..shutting down fuel supplies is a win for the environment and gas emissions. Thanks for considering climate change.
he holding those people hostages. he kills anyone that don’t agree with him.
A gang with gold heart
Clown 🤡
That man has blood all on his hands do not portray him as the possible future of Haiti.
He’s probably better than 90% of other Haitians.
That single point sling is nice 👌🏽
There are two rulers in Hiati the government and gangs
There’s multiple rulers, the government doesn’t exist
@Mike Dessal Name them
@Mike Dessal No its like russia, the govt and the russ. mob
@skyline cyber it’s a oligarchy
@skyline cyber if the government was running something, the president wouldn’t be assassinated.
No civilization here..🥴🥴🥴
There’s the mark 🎯
I’ve been following this man a little,he really like his people
Brother Levi you’re a Royal Priest, that gun won’t change anything😔, but this📖💣🔥 will.
Let’s go Haiti!!! I’m so proud of them
He’s no gangster
He opens up,give you an interview ,are you sure he is a gang leader?
Him for president. Iron nation Iron 👊
LOVE TITANIC PEACE JUSTICE AND LOVE / 1.000 ➡️ 666 GAZA + Lùcifer ➡️🦁GOLD
@38 seconds nasty OMG
Really sad
send him to afganistan al jazeera,take him home with you.
Now they are mediatizing him, warlords are just begun
His ring…freemason
Next president I will vote 🗳 for him
The dude is not a gang leader or gang member stop putting title on that man name… he used to be a police officer they fired him because he refused a demand from the head police of Haiti so they put a title on his name as gang because he didn’t accept the deal with the corrupt government. Everyone that’s fighting against the corrupt government that put on by the US government they always see them as a menace or a threat to the world or the community, that’s how it is in Haiti politics, I’m a young Haitian leadership that fighting against the same thing he fighting for, we actually building our own administration to go join the election in 2026, and also we are not affiliated to his members i just like the way he keep his ten toes down for the best interests of Haiti even though they labeled him as a gang member that doing crimes. But he’s not
쿠바랑 멕시코랑 군대 엽합에서 같이 쳐들어가 한시에 애들 파티할때나 눈보라 친후에
Barbeque will be Barbequed one day
They literally show a close up of his freemason ring at 1:50. This man is CIA.
Now I know why I got those cheap vacation offers to Haiti!
As a Haitian I will say:
AJ, I understand you are trying to show all sides and perspectives, as you should since you are a respectable News outlet.
But I beg you, as a person currently living in Haiti near the capital: STOP LEGITIMIZING THESE CRETINS.
This man and his confederation of gangs are all allied when necessary. They are all friends with corrupt elite business monopolists and politicians. They are assassins for hire. They talk about rooting up systems *without having replacement systems laid out and explained to the rest of us.* They rootingly kill qualified opposition members.
Please…PLEASE I urge you to TALK AND LEGITIMIZE THESE LUNATICS WITH GRANDIOSITY SYNDROME. He is NO revolutionary. He is a clown and a buffoon.
It is crazy that barbecue ended up being the one fighting for Haitian rights that dude is a straight killer but he is speaking facts the oligarchs need to go everywhere throughout the world It might be 95% of Haitian money But that is a part of the 99% of all money because 1% of the population is 99% of the money
Where is your proof that he is “a straight killer”? I do hope you have proof of what you are saying. Those reports on him are bogus; and the organization that produces that report, RNDDH is an organization that is sole purpose is to destroy everyone that speaks against the oligarchs he is working for and the other countries that are benefiting from Haiti’s conditions. That is why they never want Haiti to move forward. Most of us Haitians understand the game. Now, BBQ is the main target after the assassination of the President. The real question should be why? And why not those who are crippling the country for sencuries?
Translation is on point this time. But remove the line of gang leader . Call it revolutionary dont get gangs confused with revolutionary people. When you do that you throw dirt on the mand reputation
My mom from there she said country is going backwards like how you have 24/7 electric in the 70s but not in 2021 yeah a change is needed badly send some factories down there for people to get jobs
So called Freedom fighters,
Dessalines……
(Jean-Jacques Dessalines)
Is the freedom fighter that freed Haitians from slavery but, he is also Responsible for massacre …..
Haitian people are paying big price saying no to white colonial such France and Britain
That is because corrupt politician hand pick family “friends “criminals” to take place at high ranked jobs it’s an never ending cycle and I also think that is doesn’t matter who’s in command at some point they all become corrupted…
I will help you
Fk this guy. Kill off the 17 and dont trust anybody wanting to bring u a job! If anything we should be burning out all forms of currency’s!
Haitian version of the talibans
Navy seals are watching him like a hawk. He should be panicking! He has his own dedicated drone following him. If hostages are hurt he is the first to go.
The boys they are molested are traumatized as well as the hostage .
I saw you in my mind’s eye you cut off that person’s head and you walked with it carrying it by by its hair
suffer for hurting God’s people
Barbecue 🍖
Thx to them who bring Haiti the way he is now!
Capitalisme 👎
Mr barbeque you have to proove you mean good for the country……start mobilizing your people and aprehending the bad guys…🍖🌭🥓
Reminds me of Escobar haha
🇭🇹🇭🇹
Barbecue is not a gangster he’s a victim they sistem
Nothing in Haiti happens without the Haitian Oligarchs! Mr. Cherise is a low bearing fruit. Follow the money trail. How are guns getting into Haiti when there’s an US embargo? Who is responsible for the ports in Haiti? Did he kill the president? How come the gangs have not taken over the elite side of Haiti, if they have much power? The 17 missionaries, is Mr. Cherise responsible for that too?
You should talk about Clintons who’s responsible for Haiti destruction you have a lot to talk about the us is been a part of what’s going on in Haiti .Bbc not a gang he’s fighting for change he was a police officer for 14 years he’s not a gang so please
He is name BBQ because his gang burns Haitian girls alive by the thousands daily.
Seems like he’s the leader of a Armed Militia aspiring to be a revolutionary.
Haiti needs food and Haiti needs medicine. We salute you, in regards to standing up to protect your people.
Cut off the head of the snake
The fact that this man is still walking around after all the people he murdered is crazy barbecue ain’t nobody to play with the whole Port-au-Prince fear him
Check out the free mason ring on this dude… they’re everywhere
This guy is interviewing more than any other Haitian in years and not even a politician lol
He can prolly get those hostages. Unless he is a part of it
He is a great man with posetief ideals
YEAh some said the same of Hugo Chavez now you see what happened
Anybody notice the ring on Berbecue’s finger at 1:51
