Death of former Taiwanese president Lee Teng-Hui

Prime Minister Joseph Jouthe learned with sadness the news of the death of former Taiwanese President Lee Teng-Hui on Thursday, July 30, 2020 at the age of 97.

His commitment, his efforts and his role in his country's political transition after the dictatorship earned him the nickname "Mr. Democracy". On behalf of the Government of the Republic of Haiti, Prime Minister Jouthe expresses his sympathies to the government and the Taiwanese people terribly affected by this disappearance.

"I extend to the Taiwanese people the condolences of the Haitian people on the death of Lee Tang-hui who was the first President elected by direct universal suffrage. I salute his memory and his contribution to the good relations that exist today between Haiti and Taiwan," President of the Republic of Haiti Jovenel Moïse
