The Chancellor Brutus also announced that the Ambassador resigned Fritz Cinéas would meet shortly Andres Navarro, Minister of Foreign Affairs Dominican and President Danilo Medina, adding that the new Ambassador of Haiti to the Dominican Republic, Daniel Daniel Supplice will take office, Monday, March 9.

Duly Brutus ruled out any possibility of confrontation with the Dominican Republic, and that he will meet on March 10 his Dominican counterpart, in Guatemala, during the Summit of Heads of State of the Central American Integration System (SICA) "We will use all diplomatic channels to reduce tensions between the two peoples."

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs Dominican, also said Wednesday that the Dominican government was open "to continue a frank and sincere bilateral dialogue with the authorities of Haiti for the benefit of both peoples, pending a solution to the dangerous conflict around Dominican consular endowments."

For her part, Cristina Lizardo, the President of the Dominican Senate, described the closure of the Dominican consulates in Haiti as a response "very timely and appropriate to the situation we face today," stressing that the Dominican government had shown prudence with Haiti, recalling that "prudence should not be confused with weakness, because we are aware of the role we have to play, as a country, we continue to be prudent."
