☆ Haiti’s Leader, Under Growing Pressure, Says He Will Resign
  + stars: | 2024-03-11 | by ( Emiliano Rodríguez Mega | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Haiti’s prime minister, who has come under growing pressure to resign as gangs have overrun the country, said late Monday that he would step down once a transitional council had been established, to pave the way for the election of a new president and help restore stability. “The government that I lead will withdraw immediately after the installation of this council,” Prime Minister Ariel Henry said in a speech posted on social media. The government that I lead cannot remain insensitive to this situation.”But it was far from clear when Mr. Henry, who had been under growing pressure to step down both in Haiti and abroad, would actually do so. Leaders from Caribbean nations, who have led the push to create a transitional council, met for discussions in Jamaica on Monday but said no plan had been finalized. Guyana’s president, Mohamed Irfaan Ali, who leads Caricom, a union of 15 Caribbean countries, said that “we still have a long way to go.”

☆ UN Chief Warns Climate Chaos and Food Crises Threaten Global Peace: 'Empty Bellies Fuel Unrest'

“Climate and conflict are two leading drivers of (our) global food crisis,” the secretary-general said. And in Myanmar, prospects of ending hunger have gone into reverse because of conflict and instability, he said. Simon Stiell, the United Nations climate chief, told the council that climate change is contributing to food insecurity and to conflict. Framework Convention on Climate Change said the Security Council “must acknowledge more can be done rather than hoping the problem will go away — which it won’t.”The U.N.’s most powerful body should be requesting regular updates on climate security risks, he said. But climate change, environmental and security pressures have led to increased tensions and competition between herders and farmers for scarce resources including water and land, she said.

☆ Fire in Guyana School Dormitory Kills at Least 20

A time of celebration in Guyana as it prepared to mark its independence day this week turned to mourning on Monday after at least 20 people, many of them children, were killed when a fire engulfed a girls’ dormitory at a school in the central part of the South American country. The country’s president described the fatal blaze as “horrific” and a “major disaster.”The ages of the victims are not known, but students enrolled at the school are between 12 and 16. Several others were injured in the fire, which broke out late Sunday in Mahdia, a gold mining town about 120 miles southwest of the capital, Georgetown. Seven students in critical condition were being evacuated to the capital. “The focus now is on the children to ensure that we do everything, to give them as much help as we can,” President Mohamed Irfaan Ali told journalists early Monday at Ogle airport, also known as Eugene F. Correia International Airport, where he was organizing a “full-scale emergency” plan.
☆ Exxon set to order 5th Guyana oil vessel, sizing up more blocks

The efforts would add significantly to the $30 billion committed thus far by Exxon and Guyana partners Hess Corp (HES.N) and CNOOC Ltd (0883.HK). Guyana has emerged as the world's fastest-growing oil region since Exxon made its first offshore discovery in 2015. It would be the consortium's largest and most expensive project, outstripping the $10 billion cost of the fourth project. Its oil would start flowing in 2027 and continue for 20 years, according to the Guyana government's estimate. Guyana President Mohamed Irfaan Ali visited India last week to try to entice private companies and the government to join its oil business.
