President William Ruto has welcomed the Presidential Transition Council (PTC) of Haiti that will be responsible for choosing the country's next leadership
Speaking on Saturday Ruto said his decision is evidence of the collective courage and singular sacrifice of the Haitian Council of Cabinet to forge a Haiti free of violence and to establish a new democratic administration.
“We look forward to the PTC moving with speed to appoint the Prime Minister and Cabinet. I commend the leadership of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) for their steadfast stewardship of the intense consultations that led to the establishment of a Presidential Transitional Council that reflects the diverse sections of Haitian society,” president Ruto said.
The head of state affirmed that he is confident the new political leadership will lay a strong foundation for resolution of the crisis in Haiti, restore security, afford the Haitian people a political transition and usher in sustainable peace and development.
Kenya plans to deploy more than 1,000 officers to Haiti to help in the mission.
