The Spin

Narrative A

This move to dismiss Conille is illegal and this overextension of the transitional council's powers was only carried out because several members of the council are currently facing corruption charges.

Narrative B

In a country gripped by violence, where half the population faces acute starvation as a result, this move is only going to extend the constitutional crisis and will only increase the suffering of all Haitians.
