<p>Haitian president Rene Preval will stay in office for three more months as his country chooses a successor in a delayed election, his chief of staff said.</p>
<p>Chief of Staff Fritz Longchamp confirmed Mr Preval&#8217;s exit date of May 14 following uncertainty about the Haitian leader&#8217;s plans.</p>
<p>Mr Preval&#8217;s term had been scheduled to end on Monday, but his successor will not be elected until Haiti holds a presidential run-off on March 20.</p>
<p>He had been silent about his intentions in recent days, leading to rumours that he might appoint a temporary successor.</p>
<p>&#8220;He will stay in office until May 14,&#8221; Mr Longchamp said.</p>
<p>An emergency law passed by members of Mr Preval&#8217;s former party in an expiring Senate allows him to remain in office for up to three more months because his 2006 inauguration was delayed.</p>
<p>The US and other nations had signalled they agreed with Mr Preval staying in office for a few months past the end of his term to avoid a power vacuum in Haiti, where foreign governments have collectively spent billions on recovery efforts after last year&#8217;s devastating earthquake &#8211; and pledged billions more for reconstruction.</p>
