Jean Marie Cherestal on the web:

"On February 7, 2001, Aristide was sworn in for his second term as President of Haiti.

That same day, the CD (Convergence Democratique)�swore in Gerard Gourgue as head of a new provisional government.

Aristide agreed to reform the CEP (Conseil Electoral Provisoire), but he did not include any supporters of the opposition in the new body.

Jean-Marie Cherestal was made the new Prime Minister in March 2001.

The CD (Convergence Democratique) rejected both changes and in response the Government tried to have Gourgue arrested.

The economy suffered as political control stalled.

Aristide made moves to placate the opposition � in June 2001 certain senators holding contested seats resigned � but talks between the FL (Fanmi Lavalas)�and the CD (Convergence Democratique) repeatedly failed.

There was an attempted coup in mid-December 2001 and Cherestal resigned in January 2002, as the economy continued to slump.
