Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry has announced his intention to resign once a transitional presidential council is established, amidst escalating violence in the Caribbean nation. The announcement comes in response to widespread calls for his resignation as Haiti grapples with a surge in violent gang activity.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently visited Jamaica for urgent discussions with Caribbean leaders regarding the ongoing crisis in Haiti. The situation has deteriorated to the point where Henry has been unable to return to Haiti due to the closure of its main international airports.
