"Haiti's Political Turmoil: From New Leaders to Gang Leaders, and a Prime Minister's Resignation"
A plan to install new leadership in Haiti through a proposed presidential council is facing rejection from several political parties, including ex-senator Jean Charles Moïse and former rebel leader Guy Philippe, who have created their own council. The proposal, backed by the international community, aims to address the country's crisis of violence and political instability caused by gang violence. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Ariel Henry has announced his resignation once the council is in place, but the plan's future remains uncertain as key political figures and parties decline to participate, and the deadline for submitting council member names passes without any submissions.
