Haitian President Jovenel Moise has been assassinated when a group of armed men raided his private residence and shot Jovenel Moise and his wife. As a result, the Haitian Capital was put under martial law. The airports have been shut down and all travel between Haiti and the Dominican Republic has been suspended.

The police have also blocked the road leading to the Presidential Palace and the neighborhood to Haiti's upper class. Luckily the Presidents wife is still alive. Claude Joseph has assumed the role of acting President and will remain, President until there are new elections or if there is a coup d’etat

I have no clue who the assassins are other than that the assassins spoke Spanish and had American accents. I think this may be part of a coup d’etat or plot by Haitian Politicians or Military Officials. Of course, this is speculation but really possible.

Another possibility is that the US government ordered the President of Haiti assassinated for some reason which will explain why the assassin had American accents because they were acting under the orders of the CIA.

There is another rumor that the Clintons have ordered Jovenel Moise assassinated because he was about to indict Clintons for human trafficking and other crimes. Though this is really ludicrous.

Protests in Haiti 2019-Ongoing

Haiti is definitely not a stable country and has had multiple coups in its over 200-year long history since the countries founding in 1804. They had a coup in 2004 and 1991 and probably there is going to be one in 2021 and some politicians are planning to seize power right now. There are also currently protests going on in Haiti because of misuse of loans from Venezuela, Corruption, and Rising taxes on gasoline, diesel, and kerosene.

So what is the most likely scenario is that the assassins are people angry at the President and wanted him to resign so there can be a transitional government. Since he is still alive they decided he should die so broke into his house and shot him.
