Viv Ansanm: Historic G9 / G-Pèp Alliance Announced

Former rival gang coalitions G9 an Fanmi e Alye and G-Pèp formally announced the Viv Ansanm ('Living Together') alliance on September 22, 2023. The union united two groups that had fought a bloody war in Cité Soleil just 15 months earlier. Chérizier presented the alliance as a move toward protecting civilians, but analysts warned it dramatically concentrated criminal power and foreshadowed a coordinated offensive against the state.
