I am currently in Haiti to help the Haitian people in their reconstruction.

I am not a dwarf.

It is the destiny of the people of Haiti to suffer.

People of Haiti, I am the heir to the political philosophy, the doctrine and the revolution which my late father incarnated as president-for-life and I have decided to continue his work with the same fierce energy and the same intransigence.

When people talk to me about tyranny, it makes me laugh and gives me the impression that people suffer from amnesia.

Haiti, Haiti, the further I am from you, the less I breathe. Haiti, I love you, and I will love you always. Always.
