Haiti's minister of finance resigns blaming "lack of solidarity"


PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (Reuters) - Haiti's Minister of Economy and Finances Marie Carmelle Jean-Marie resigned abruptly on Wednesday, accusing her cabinet colleagues of not cooperating with her attempts to clean up public finances.

"I can battle against adversity or against external hazards that regularly hit our country, but not against the lack of solidarity of my own peers," she wrote in her resignation letter, a copy of which was obtained by Reuters.
