US Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke Friday with Haitian Prime Minister Alix Fils-Aima, telling him that the Transitional Presidential Council (TPC) must be dissolved by February 7, according to the State Department. Rubio said the TPC must be dissolved “without corrupt actors seeking to interfere in Haiti’s path to elected governance for their own gains,” it said. He also reaffirmed US support for Haiti’s stability and security, and emphasised the importance of Fils-Aima’s continued tenure as prime minister to “combat terrorist gangs and stabilise the island,” said the statement.
