Interim Haiti president vows quick elections
Ertha Pascal Trouillot, 42, installed as Haiti's provisional president, pledges to hold elections in the least possible time. She says the government will be elected by the people, while Maj. Gen. Herard Abraham commits to the army staying at its headquarters and not blocking the vote. A crowd of more than 106000 gathers at the National Palace to celebrate the milestone of Haiti's first female president and a potential return to democracy after decades of military rule.
