Barring future appointments, Chibly Langlois is the only Haitian cardinal, so let's briefly look at the island nation's history while we're here.   Haiti was the result of the only successful slave rebellion in history, making it a 19th century pariah with no diplomatic recognition or formal trade relations until the populace literally paid for themselves to compensate for the lost air quotes "property", something which they could only afford using the international equivalent of payday loans to predatory lenders. The end result of this is that Haiti is, to this day, one of the poorest countries on earth. It has also had a range of issues establishing an effective and stable government, considering it started from basically nothing, coupled with general hostility from the international community at large, having about two centuries of rule by fiat mixed with coups, a situation which has only begun to change in the last few decades.   When Chibly was born, the dictator of the day was François "Papa Doc" Duvalier, who would be succeeded by his son, Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier. The Duvalier regime became more repressive after a coup attempt a few months before Chibly's birth, so the family got to deal with that in addition to being no exception to the general poverty.   The oldest of four, Chibly entered seminary in 1985, shortly before a 1986 uprising put Baby Doc Duvalier into exile. Incidentally, one of the factors that may have contributed to that uprising was a 1983 visit by none other than Pope John Paul II, where the Supreme Pontiff publicly told the leader of the majority-Catholic country that quote "things must change in Haiti" end quote.   Chibly Langlois was ordained in 1991 at the age of 32, becoming a priest for his home diocese of Jacmel. He held a few diocesan roles right off the bat, including serving as vicar for the cathedral, then in 1994 he went off to Rome for further study, obtaining a Licentiate in theology from the Pontifical Lateran University.    Like many Cardinals, Fr Langlois also served as a seminary professor, teaching pastoral theology from 2000 to 2004. In 2004, he was elected bishop of Fort-Liberté, where he served until 2011, when he was transferred to head the Diocese of Les Cayes. Later that year, he became head of Haiti's bishops conference, a role he'd fill till 2017.   In 2014, Pope Francis announced that he would be elevating Bishop Langlois to the Cardinalate, in the first of what would become Francis' many surprising red-hattings. Cardinal Langlois is Haiti's first Cardinal, and Pope Francis passed over both of the countries' archbishops in the process. The announcement was made on the fourth anniversary of a devastating 2010 earthquake that had killed more than 2% of Haiti's population, including one of the archbishops, and left another 15% of the population homeless. Cardinal Langlois had carried on his general focus on social justice and the poor in his efforts to aid in the aftermath, and the timing of the announcement on the anniversary was seen as no coincidence given his name appearing on the list.   Nor was that Cardinal Langlois' last earthquake, he himself was injured in a separate 2021 earthquake that killed three in the priestly residence where he was staying. He also suffered a broken arm in a 2022 car accident. And though I don't want this episode to just be a laundry list of bad things that happened to Cardinal Langlois and his country, I should also note that the Cardinal has been co-signing statements from Haiti's bishops' conference decrying a quote "descent into hell" end quote as they said  in 2021, then quote "murderous madness of hatred, of contempt for life” end quote in 2022, and just two months ago their statement included a reference to "genocide" of defenseless civilians by criminal gangs. So, to put it mildly, Cardinal Langlois and his brother bishops want you to know that things are once again not great in Haiti.   In fact, since the time I made my original notes here, Haiti's government fell again after the acting President who had not taken promised steps to install a successor was refused access back into the country. Whatever the transition will be is still playing out, with violence among armed gangs being even more common than usual.   What can you do? Well, there's a UNICEF fundraising link for relief to Haitian children in the comments. You can also pray, I'm not one to mock thoughts and prayers. If you're going to hop on a plane with relief stuff like a new Roberto Clemente–there's a story, dude should be canonized–let me know and I'll encourage listeners to support your mission. You can spread awareness more generally in some small way, hoping increased attention will eventually bring the aid you can't bring personally. I don't pretend any of those options will have much effect, and I know they're all subject to ridicule from cynics. C'est la vie. I'll let you figure out the best response for you, with a note that anything is better than nothing, though keep in mind you can't do everything.   Chibly Langlois is eligible to participate in future conclaves until he turns 80 in 2038.   Today's episode is part of Cardinal Numbers, and there will be more Cardinal Numbers next week. Thank you for listening; God bless you all!

Nouvelles mobilisations en Haïti dans cinq villes d'Haïti : Les Cayes, Miragôane, Gonaïves ainsi que Ouanaminthe et Jérémie où l'on déplore plusieurs blessés, par balles ou armes blanches, après des heurts entre manifestants et riverains. « Les gens sont dans la rue depuis six jours, comment Frantz Duval, rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste, et à chaque fois la tension monte un peu plus. » Pour l'instant, les manifestations restent limitées à ces villes de province mais les protestataires réclament la démission du Premier ministre, disent agir pour « chambarder le système, ajoute le journaliste, et chaque jour qui passe augmente le risque de dérapage. »L'insécurité, motif de protestationL'actualité à Port-au-Prince vient montrer une nouvelle fois la violence des gangs qui ont de nouveau mené des assauts dans les quartiers de Solino ou Carrefour-Feuilles. « Les gens étaient déjà dans la précarité et ces derniers jours beaucoup de maisons ont été pillées et incendiées. Des gens ont été blessés dans des affrontements ou en essayant de prendre la fuite. »La BSAP, objet d'incertitudes et de craintesLe Nouvelliste publie un long article sur la Brigade de sécurité des aires protégées, sur laquelle se penche le gouvernement d'après une source du journal. « Au départ, c'est une centaine d'hommes qui doivent surveiller les forêts, explique Frantz Duval, mais cela fait des années que les agents de la BSAP ont échappé à tout contrôle de l'administration. L'effectif a augmenté, BSAP est devenu un corps armé formé surtout d'anciens militaires ou agents de sécurité. » De plus, le directeur général de cette brigade est un proche de Guy Philippe, ancien officier de police, de retour en Haïti il y a quelques mois après avoir passé six ans en prison aux États-Unis, c'est lui qui appelle en ce moment à manifester contre le Premier ministre. « On a l'impression qu'il y a un nouveau corps armé sur le territoire, constate le rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste, un corps qui n'est pas sous contrôle de l'administration publique et qui à tout moment peut faire basculer le rapport de forces parce qu'on ignore l'effectif de la BSAP. » Les États-Unis affichent leurs ambitions d'exportation du GNLTrois projets, au moins, devraient aboutir cette année, trois terminaux de liquéfaction du gaz naturel destiné à l'exportation. L'objectif est de liquéfier chaque année plus de huit millions de tonnes de gaz supplémentaires pour donner un rôle majeur aux États-Unis, qui ne produisaient pas de GNL, il y a encore sept ans, et sont devenus premier exportateur mondial. Un statut critiqué par les défenseurs de l'environnement, en particulier en cette période électorale. Ils considèrent que le gaz ne devrait pas être présenté systématiquement comme une énergie de transition, l'impact du gaz dépendant beaucoup de la quantité de fuite de méthane au moment de l'extraction et du transport. Le journal de la 1èreDans une lettre envoyée le 10 janvier 2024, le président de la collectivité territoriale de la Martinique demande à Emmanuel macron de « tenir ses engagements ».

Pas de signes d'essoufflement. Les manifestations anti-gouvernementales pour réclamer la démission du Premier ministre Ariel Henry se poursuivent à travers le pays. La rentrée scolaire, déjà repoussée, qui aurait dû avoir lieu hier (3 octobre 2022) a été un échec. Alors que le ministère de l'Éducation nationale avait annoncé la réouverture des classes pour ce lundi 3 octobre 2022, les portes des établissements scolaires publics et privés sont restées fermées dans la capitale Port-au- Prince et de nombreuses autres communes du pays. Aucun élève n'a été remarqué dans les rues, comme le rapporte notre confrère de l'agence en ligne AlterPresse, Gotson Pierre. La crise actuelle, qui se matérialise notamment par une pénurie des carburants, empêche le transport scolaire. Hier encore (3 octobre), des milliers de personnes, de Cap Haïtien, à Jacmel, en passant par les Gonaïves, Port-au-Prince ou Les Cayes, ont manifesté pour réclamer le départ du chef de gouvernement Ariel Henry.   La droite reste au pouvoir au Québec Les Québécois ont largement réélu, lundi 3 octobre 2022, la coalition de droite au pouvoir depuis quatre ans. La Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ), parti nationaliste hétéroclite emmené par le Premier ministre actuel François Legault, a réalisé un véritable raz-de-marée. Avec 41% des voix et 89 sièges, cette formation nationaliste fondée en 2011, a fait mieux qu'en 2018. Derrière, les autres partis étaient très largement distancés avec en seconde position le Parti libéral du Québec (PLQ, centre-gauche) qui a remporté 22 sièges, ce qui constitue les plus mauvais résultats pour la formation qui a dirigé le Québec, près de quinze années avant 2018. Mais, la carte des résultats montre une province fortement divisée entre Montréal, grande ville multiculturelle, et le reste du territoire. Le parti au pouvoir ne compte qu'un député sur le territoire de la métropole québécoise, bastion du parti libéral et de Québec solidaire (gauche).   Le fléau de l'obésité chez les jeunes Chiliens Alors que la pandémie de Covid est en recul et que les mesures sanitaires s'assouplissent, il existe une autre épidémie, silencieuse, mais tout aussi meurtrière, si ce n'est plus au Chili : l'obésité. 75 % des Chiliens âgés de plus de 15 ans sont en surpoids ou obèses. Et chez les enfants, 54 % souffrent de malnutrition par excès. Après le Mexique, les États-Unis et la Nouvelle-Zélande, le Chili est le quatrième pays au monde fortement concerné par ce problème et reflète une tendance qui est désormais mondiale. Les populations les plus touchées sont les catégories populaires avec de faibles revenus. À Santiago, la capitale, le reportage de Naïla Derroisné.   À la Une du Journal de la 1ère  En Martinique, le service a partiellement repris hier après-midi (3 octobre 2022) sur les deux lignes du « TCSP ».

Just weeks after the assassination of Haiti's president, the island nation was rocked by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake. More powerful than the deadly 2010 earthquake that killed more than 200,000 people, the 2021 quake hit a remote part of Haiti, but it still killed more than 2,000 people and destroyed tens of thousands of homes. We start with an audio diary from Jean Simon Féguens, an English teacher from Les Cayes, one of the cities hardest hit by the disaster. Next, former US Ambassador to Haiti Pamela White reflects on lessons learned about aid distribution after the 2010 earthquake. Then, we turn to Haitian author Évelyne Trouillot and historian Leslie Alexander, for a conversation about Haiti's turbulent history since its revolution. In 1804, Haiti became the first nation to free itself from slavery. According to Trouillot and Alexander, it has been paying for its freedom ever since.  Guests: Leslie Alexander, Professor of History at Arizona State University, activist and author; Evelyne Trouillot, Author, Poet and Professor of French at Universite d'Etat d'Haiti; Pamela White, Former US Ambassador to Haiti, 2012-2015; Jean Simon Féguens, English Teacher in Les Cayes, Haiti Hosts: Ray Suarez, Co-host, WorldAffairs; Teresa Cotsirilos, Co-host & Senior Producer, WorldAffairs If you appreciate this episode and want to support the work we do, please consider making a donation to WorldAffairs.

Umoja wa Mataifa na wadau wake wa misaada ya kibinadamu wanaendelea kutoa misaada huko Les Cayes, Haiti baada ya tetemeko la ardhi lililoipiga kusini magharibi mwa nchi hiyo tarehe 14 mwezi uliopita likiharibu nyumba na miundombinu, kuua na kujeruhi maelfu ya watu.  (Taarifa ya Flora Nducha)  Video iliyoandaliwa na Ofisi ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya uratibu wa misaada ya kibinadamu, OCHA, katika maeneo ya mji wa Les Cayes nchini Haiti inaanza kwa kuonesha picha zilizopigwa kutoka juu kwa ‘drone' zikiweka wazi kuwa hali bado ni tete katika mji huu kusini magharibi mwa Haiti. Majengo yameporomoka, ni vifusi kila mahali ingawa juhudi za machine nzito za ujenzi kuondoa vifusi zinaendelea kwa kushirikiana na wananchi. Mfumo wa Umoja wa Mataifa umetambua watu 650,000 wanaohitaji msaada wa kibinadamu. Kati ya watu hawa, 500,000 walio hatarini zaidi watapokea msaada wa dharura wa kuokoa maisha.  Afisa wa Umoja wa Mataifa anapita akizungumza na watu wa hapa huku akifanya tathimini ya uharibifu.   Katika eneo jingine jirani, maafisa wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Uhamiaji, IOM wanagawa misaada ambayo si vyakula yakiwemo mablanketi. Wananchi wamekusanyika hapa, wengine wajawazito, wengine wamebeba watoto na wengine ni wazee.   Mmoja ni Fleurese Derosiers, Mwanamke mzee mwenye umri wa miaka 80 ambaye amefurushwa katika makazi yake kutokana na tetemeko hili la ardhi anasema, "Tuna shida nyingi. Nyumba zilianguka, ng'ombe wetu walikufa, watu wamejeruhiwa, tunalala nje. Sijafa ni kwa sababu ya neema ya Mungu. Laiti tetemeko la ardhi lingetokea saa 5 asubuhi, ningekufa. Kuta zilianguka pale pale kwenye kitanda changu, ambapo mimi hulala. Ilikuwa muda mfupi sana. "  OCHA imeruhusu dola milioni 8 kutoka Mfuko wa dharura wa Umoja wa Mataifa, CERF ili kuharakisha usaidizi kwa watu wa Haiti, wakijikita zaidi katika afya, malazi, na msaada wa maji na kujisafi. Msaada wa ziada utahitajika wakati tathmini kamili itakapokamilika.

Bienvenido a La Wikly.🇦🇫 Nuevo régimen talibánLos talibanes asumen el mando de Afganistán después de meses de ofensiva. El vacío militar estadounidense y la poca resistencia del ejército del gobierno afgano de Ashraf Ghani facilitaron la caída de Kabul este domingo.Ghani abandonó el país en la misma jornada en la que los talibanes entraron en el palacio presidencial de Kabul, otrora una de las localizaciones más seguras de todo el país.El miedo recorrió las calles de Kabul este lunes, cuando miles de afganos se desplazaron al aeropuerto internacional de la capital donde miles de soldados protegen la evacuación de personal estadounidense y civiles afganos con autorización.Tras 20 años alejados del poder, los talibanes tienen visos de imponer su corriente ultraconservadora, limitar los derechos de mujeres y niñas y perseguir a quienes ayudaron a los estadounidenses y sus aliados.Biden hablará esta noche del lunes a las 21:45 hora peninsular española. Lo estaremos siguiendo en Twitch un poco antes.Más información en The New York Times.🇭🇹 Haití: nuevo terremotoUn terremoto de 7.2 puntos en la escala de Richter sacudió el sur de Haití el pasado sábado, con una fuerte réplica que se sintió al caer la noche.La oficina de Protección Civil de Haití confirmó casi 1.300 víctimas mortales y unos 6.000 heridos.
