Alix Didier Fils-Aime was sworn in as Prime Minister of Caribbean country Haiti yesterday. In his speech during inauguration ceremony, Fils-Aime vowed to provide a comprehensive response to insecurity and organise uncontested elections. He said, the situation is chaotic, but nothing is impossible.

Haiti has been suffering from humanitarian and security crises exacerbated by surging gang violence. During the first three months of 2024, around 2,500 people were killed or injured as a result of gang violence.

Local media says, Aime’s predecessor Garry Conille, who served twice as Prime Minister, was dismissed by the Transitional Presidential Council. The council was formed in April with the task of selecting new political leaders and organising elections in the Caribbean nation.
