Recently appointed Haitian Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aime swore in new cabinet members over the weekend. Fils-Aimé was sworn in as the new interim prime minister following the departure of his predecessor Garry Conille, who was ousted by the transition council that aims to reestablish democratic order in the Caribbean nation.
Established in April, the transitional presidential council was tasked with choosing Haiti’s next prime minister and cabinet with the hope that it would help quell the turmoil roiling the country.
But the council has been plagued with politics and infighting and has long been at odds with Conille.
