Haiti appoints Garry Conille as new prime minister amidst gang violence

Garry Conille is the new prime minister of Haiti. He was chosen by six out of seven council members. Conille has experience in helping communities after disasters, like the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. He also worked at the United Nations before becoming prime minister in 2011. He resigned from his previous term due to disagreements with the president over government officials with dual nationality. Conille faces a tough job ahead. He needs to stop gang violence and improve Haiti's economy, which is struggling with high inflation. Gangs control most of the capital, Port-au-Prince, and have displaced many people from their homes. They also disrupt the transportation of essential goods to other regions of Haiti. The selection of Conille as prime minister followed a controversial process. The council members had to restart the selection after criticism that the proper procedures were not followed. The council is also responsible for choosing a new Cabinet and organizing general elections by the end of next year. The council members represent different parties and groups in Haiti. They have the important task of guiding the country through these challenging times and ensuring a stable future for its people.
