If the Prime Minister can't perform duties due to health issues, what steps do you think should be taken to ensure the country's leadership remains strong?
@9NV4PN32yrs2Y
Well there is usually a second in command. Use them.
Really hoping Garry Conille makes a swift recovery; Haiti needs stable and strong leadership now more than ever to address its ongoing political and humanitarian challenges.
