Haiti Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé has departed for the United States of America on an official visit from April 19 to 24, 2026, according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office.

Fils-Aimé is being accompanied by a small delegation that includes Raina Forbin and Special Advisor Guerly Leriche.

The Prime Minister’s Office said the high-level mission forms part of ongoing efforts to strengthen strategic dialogue between the Republic of Haiti and its international partners, with the aim of mobilizing increased support for stability, security, and the revitalization of national development.

During his stay in Washington, D.C., Fils-Aimé is scheduled to hold a series of high-level meetings with representatives of international financial institutions, regional organizations, and U.S. officials.

In addition to the Washington visit, the Prime Minister will also travel to New York City, where he is expected to continue diplomatic consultations, particularly with the United Nations, on key issues concerning Haiti.

The Government said the visit underscores its commitment to defending national interests, strengthening strategic partnerships, and promoting effective international cooperation in service of the Haitian people.
