The majority of Haiti's transitional council voted to oust the country's prime minister, Alix Didier Fils-Aime, defying warnings from the United States and others in the international community.
Edgard Leblanc Fils, president of the council, made the announcement on Friday alongside fellow council member Leslie Voltaire. They did not explain why the decision was made and said they would find a replacement within 30 days. There were no other members of the panel present.
