"Impunity & Corruption": Haiti Protesters Demand President Moïse's Resignation Amid Failing Economy
In Haiti, massive anti-government protests calling for the resignation of U.S.-backed President Jovenel Moise continue to escalate. The worsening economic crisis, a shortage of fuel and food, and corruption allegations against Moise have sent protesters to the streets on and off for over a year. Hundreds demonstrated in the capital Port-au-Prince Monday, and another protest is scheduled for today. Much of Port-au-Prince has been on lockdown for the past two weeks, and at least four people have been killed in recent days after Haitian police opened fire on protesters, using live ammunition and tear gas. From Miami, we speak to Jacqueline Charles, Haiti and Caribbean correspondent at the Miami Herald and a Pulitzer Prize finalist for her coverage of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.
