Port-au-Prince (Haiti), Feb 13 (EFE), (Camera: María Montecelos).- Haiti’s foreign affairs chief Claude Joseph insisted during an interview with Efe that the situation in the country was “under control,” despite the fact President Jovenel Moise recently denounced a coup attempt against his leadership amid a prolonged socio-political crisis in the nation. SOUNDBITES OF HAITI’S FOREIGN AFFAIRS CHIEF CLAUDE JOSEPH:"Let’s not get carried away. The situation is not as bad as some people are making out. The situation is under control. Today is better than yesterday. Tomorrow will be better than today.""That is unfortunate. It is something that we also reject. I have seen the video of a journalist, probably not a journalist, who also hit a policeman. So we have to reject that. What I can tell you is that in all protests over the world there are these deviations. These deviations should be avoided. And I know that the President of the Republic has spoken with the Director General of the Police in this regard, to avoid these deviations as much as possible. Because journalists are important to us in democracy, especially now that public opinion as a tool is used as a tool. Some people in the opposition try to use public opinion as a tool."
