A transitionary council in Haiti has ousted Prime Minister Garry Conille from his position after just six months in office, appointing businessman Alix Didier Fils-Aimé as his replacement. This move comes amidst a backdrop of deep political unrest and violence that has plagued the country throughout the year.
Fils-Aimé, the former president of Haiti's Chamber of Commerce and Industry, was initially considered for the prime minister role earlier this year but lost out to Conille, who assumed office in June. However, Conille quickly found himself at odds with the transitionary council, which was formed in April to restore stability following a period of gang violence that gripped the capital, Port Au Prince, in March.
