Ariel Henry resigns as prime minister of Haiti paving the way for a new government to take power

     Port-au-Prince (Haiti), Apr 25 (AP) Ariel Henry resigned Thursday as prime minister of Haiti, leaving the way clear for a new government to be formed in the Caribbean country, which has been wrecked by gang violence.
     Henry presented his resignation in a letter signed in Los Angeles, dated April 24, and released on Thursday by his office on the same day a council tasked with choosing a new prime minister and Cabinet for Haiti was due to be sworn in.
     The council would be installed more than a month after Caribbean leaders announced its creation following an emergency meeting to tackle Haiti's spiralling crisis. (AP) SCY
