Jovenel Moise

Jovenel Moise was the President of Haiti, assassinated in July 2021. His assassination is newsworthy because jury selection is beginning in South Florida for five individuals charged in connection with his death. The articles highlight the aftermath of his death and the subsequent political instability in Haiti. A Transitional Presidential Council (TPC) was formed to govern, but it has been marked by turmoil, including attempts to remove US-backed Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aime. The US has even deployed a warship to waters near Haiti's capital. The ongoing legal proceedings related to Moise's assassination and the political instability in Haiti underscore the lasting impact of his death and the challenges facing the country.
