We have problems which will be addressed by Haitians.

I respect religion and will respect any religion.

We have not reached the consensus that to eat is a basic human right. This is an ethical crisis. This is a crisis of faith.

We must all make peace so that we can all live in peace.

I am confident that I can serve my country without being involved as the president of the country now.

As far as we are concerned, we are ready to leave today, tomorrow, at any time, to join the people of Haiti, to share in their suffering, help rebuild the country, moving from misery to poverty with dignity.

I am still the only elected president of the country.
