The Caribbean regional body CARICOM on Friday welcomed the creation of a transitional governing council in Haiti which it said "signals the possibility of a new beginning" for that country in crisis.

In a statement from Georgetown, Guyana, CARICOM heads of government described the breakthrough as a "Haitian owned formula for governance that will take the troubled country through elections to the restoration of the lapsed state institutions and constitutional government."
