Haiti’s new prime minister vows to seek unity after he is selected by transitional council
Associated PressSAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Haiti’s newly chosen Prime Minister Garry Conille vowed to seek unity Wednesday in his first statement since a transitional council selected him to head the government in the troubled Caribbean country under siege by criminal gangs. Council members told The Associated Press late Tuesday that six of seven members with voting powers had selected Conille for the prime minister role. Conille will replace interim Prime Minister Michel Patrick Boisvert, who has been helping lead the country since former Prime Minister Ariel Henry resigned via letter in April following a surge in gang violence. Boivert issued a statement Wednesday congratulating Conille, adding that he “hopes the new prime minister will be able to face the challenges and issues of the moment.” Also congratulating Conille was Kenyan President William Ruto, who wrote on X Wednesday that “this significant step is not lost on the world.” He added that Kenya was looking forward to working with Conille and his government “to restore Haiti to a path of sustainable development.” It was not immediately clear if there would be a formal swearing-in ceremony for Conille.
