Gérard Latortue (born June 19, 1934) is the current Prime Minister of Haiti.

He was an official in the United Nations for many years, and he served as foreign minister of Haiti briefly during 1988. He was living in the United States when he was appointed to head the new provisional government in Haiti on March 9, 2004. He arrived in Haiti on March 10 and was sworn in on March 12, 2004.

The government of Percival Patterson in Jamaica has refused to recognise Latortue's administration, as has the government of St Kitts and Nevis and the African Union.
