Blinken spoke with Edgard Leblanc Fils (Video) 06/09/2024 09:44:28 Secretary Blinken emphasized the international community’s support for the Transitional Council as Haiti’s presidential authority. He expressed gratitude to Leblanc for the CPT’s efforts to appoint and collaborate with Prime Minister Garry Conille, as well as for the Council’s efforts to establish a Provisional Electoral Council (CPT). The security situation, preparations for the elections, and the impact of allegations of corruption related to the BNC, targeting 3 advisors, on the functioning of the CPT were also discussed. Both agreed on the critical need to make rapid progress in preparations for the elections.
