PM Of Violence-Ridden Haiti Resigns As Council Sworn In
The Independent
|April 26, 2024
Haiti’s prime minister has resigned, clearing the way for a new government to be formed in a country that has been wracked by widespread gang violence.
More than 2,500 people were killed or injured from January through March, data from the UN shows.
Ariel Henry presented his resignation in a letter signed in Los Angeles, dated 24 April, and released yesterday by his office on the same day that a council tasked with choosing a new prime minister and cabinet for Haiti was sworn in.
Henry’s remaining cabinet meanwhile chose economy and finance minister Michel Patrick Boisvert as the interim prime minister. It was not immediately clear when the transitional council would select its own interim prime minister. The council was installed more than a month after Caribbean leaders announced its creation following an emergency meeting to tackle Haiti’s spiraling crisis. Mr Henry had pledged to resign once the council was installed.
