Haiti President Michel Martelly has re-shuffled his cabinet.
This will be the third cabinet change in Mr. Martelly’s presidency and the second in five months.
Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe, who retains in his position as minister of planning and external cooperation, made the announcement of the cabinet re-shuffle via Twitter Tuesday afternoon.
