"I am pleased to announce that Ambassador Henry Wooster will serve as Chargé d'Affaires at the U.S. Embassy in Haiti. Ambassador Wooster has been tasked with leading a whole-of-government approach to U.S. policy in Haiti. He will work with our partners around the world who provide critical support to Haitian security forces [..] Ambassador Wooster has a long and distinguished career, including his service at the Embassy in Port-au-Prince. Given his extensive experience in Washington and his proven track record as a leader abroad, he is ideally suited to lead this mission at this critical time." He will assume his duties on June 12, 2025, replacing Ambassador Dennis B. Hankin, who is retiring after a nearly 40-year career. Wooster is a career member of the Senior Foreign Service, Minister Counselor class. Previously, he served as Deputy Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in Paris.
