Haiti schedules December presidential election despite security concerns
Haiti's electoral council has scheduled the country's first presidential election in a decade for December 13, with a runoff planned for late February, after postponing an earlier timetable due to security fears. The vote remains contingent on improved security and funding, as widespread gang violence continues to cast doubt over whether the long-delayed electoral process can proceed as planned.
