Haiti’s ruling presidential council welcomed a new prime minister, entrepreneur Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, on Monday after ousting the current executive, longtime United Nations civil servant Garry Conille,

Haiti's transitional presidential council will appoint a new prime minister, replacing Garry Conille who was named prime minister of the Caribbean nation in May, according to a draft resolution seen by Reuters which is expected to be published Monday in the official gazette.

Haiti's transitional ruling council fired interim Prime Minister Garry Conille Sunday and replaced him with Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, a businessman. Conille, a longtime civil servant, was installed in June to work with the new council to stabilize Haiti and hold the country's first elections since 2016. He called his ouster illegitimate.
