Haiti removes envoy in Dominican Republic as diplomatic crisis looms(Update)



Santo Domingo.- Haiti ambassador Daniel Supplice has been removed “permanently” from his post by the Haitian government, journalist Edit Febles afirmed Wednesday morning.

Speaking on Colorvision Channel 9, Febles said a commercial attaché will manage the Haiti embassy in Santo Domingo.

She said Supplice confirmed his removal by phone earlier Wednesday.

FILE The government of Haiti recalled its ambassador in Dominican Republic, Daniel Supplice on Tuesday, former Haiti general consul Edwin Paraison confirmed last night.

Paraison tweeted that he spoke personally with Supplice, who told him that "not only was I called for a consultation but that it was apparently a government decision to recall him to Haiti."

He said amid the crisis between the two countries over the Dominican government’s immigration measures, it’s difficult to analyze the situation in depth without some elements of information.

Paraison noted some Dominicans sectors want the government to recall the Dominican ambassador in Haiti. "

In a phone Interview by Roberto Cavada on Telenoticias Channel 11, the former consul said the fact that the ambassador has been recalled doesn’t mean diplomatic ties are broken.

He ruled out however that it’s a routine change by Port-au-Prince because Supplice has held the post for less than six months.

Although Paraison stressed that there’s no severing of relations between the Hispaniola neighbors, called the situation an embarrassment, "to some extent, a diplomatic crisis between both parties."
