PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Former Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide is eligible for a passport but has not applied for one, Haitian officials said Monday.
That followed a letter from the ousted leader’s U.S. lawyer, Ira Kurzban, telling officials at Haiti’s foreign affairs and interior ministries that he understood they had agreed to issue Aristide a diplomatic passport.
“I kindly request that his diplomatic passport be issued immediately and that plans for his return commence immediately,” he said. The letter was forwarded to reporters.
