Haiti - Bahamas : New Ambassador of Haiti to the Bahamas
In a ceremony at Government House on Thursday, October 14, 2010, His Excellency Sir Arthur Foulkes, Bahamian Governor General, accepted the credentials of His Excellency Antonio Rodriguez, Ambassador of the Republic of Haiti. Ambassador Rodriguez replaces Ambassador Louis Harold Joseph, who served for eight years. 
 


Sir Arthur emphasized the importance of diplomatic relations between The Bahamas and Haiti which have existed since 1977 "As members of the global community and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), our two countries share many of the same challenges. At the same time, we have the highest aspirations for the development and protection of our societies and our world. To this end, we both recognise the importance of our active participation in multilateral fora" Recalling to the New Ambassador that "your experience as a career diplomat and your direct familiarity with some of the major donors for your country and those with traditional ties to Haiti augur well for success in our multi-layered relation".

Ambassador Rodrigue, 56, said he was honoured to have been appointed the Ambassador of Haiti to The Bahamas. "By entrusting upon me this great and important mission to the Government of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, President Renè Prèval wishes thus to confirm the continuity and depth which characterises the ties uniting our two countries and our people", speaking to Sir Arthur Foulkes, he recalled that "both countries have the potential to develop commercial relations" recalling the Memorandum of Understanding bilateral negotiation on agricultural products "once concluded, could contribute enormously to the cooperation between both countries [...] I commit myself to working with fervour to bringing the ties of friendship between our countries even closer. I am certain that I will be able to count on your support and the support of the Government of The Bahamas in order to achieve this goal".
