Port-Au-Prince, February 15 (RHC)-- Haitian lawmakers have chosen an opposition senator to serve as interim president for 120 days after disputed elections left the country without a president.

And in other news from Haiti, Patrick Elie, longtime pro-democracy activist and Haiti’s former secretary of state for public security under Aristide died of internal bleeding at a hospital in Port-Au-Prince at the age of 66.
