 (Reuters) – The United States today moved to block former Haitian Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe from entering the United States over what U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said was his “involvement in significant corruption.”

Lamothe resigned in 2014 after succumbing to domestic and international pressure.
