Lapin said the state had just finalized payment to a supplier who needs to import 351,000 barrels of product in the next few days and had upgraded with 3 other suppliers to import an additional 200,000 barrels.
With these 500,000 barrels to come, of which the first tanker is expected on January 9, Haiti will have a month of supply, stressed the Prime Minister, insisting that there is no reason to fear, a rarity, a shortage see fuel rationing as some rumors suggest...
