Who Is Running Haitian Diplomacy: Amateur Diplomats Making Us Look Like Monkeys

On September 23, the Supreme Court of the Dominican Republican issued a ruling that retroactively denationalized many Dominicans of Haitian ancestry. The Haitian government said nothing. Not one press conference, not one press release, zip, zero, nyet, nada, nothing. Some of you said that this was an internal matter that the Dominican Republic should deal with and that the Haitian Government has nothing to do with it. Some of you said that the Haitian Government was right for being cautious, while other countries in the Caribbean were busy condemning the Dominican Republic.

Following a huge march against the Haitian Government asking for Martelly and Lamothe's departure, Lamothe wasted our money taking a trip to Silicon Valley for photo-ops with Sean Penn and others, while Pierre Richard Casimir, the worst of the worst was in Venezuela reading an agreement biding Haiti to bilateral talks with the Dominican Republic. First of all, what's happening in the Dominican Republic is a humanitarian issue of concern to the entire world including the Haitian Government. Second, prior to this agreement, many countries had already denounced the Dominican Republic, why on earth would Pierre Richard and Lamothe entered into an agreement for bilateral talks only? This is truly a sign of mediocrity, and a failure to think things through. Where is Ambassador Ray Joseph when we need a real diplomat to deal with the DR?

Second, two days following the execution of the bilateral agreement, President Martelly traveled to Trinidad to have a meeting with members of CARICOM dealing with the same issues. Why sign a bilateral Agreement when there are other parties who are concerned about the same issues, which will help your side of the argument? It is the blind leading the blind. President Martelly did what he could and he did well, but would it not be advisable to postpone the execution of the bilateral agreement until we find out what our supporters at CARICOM would do?

Now, the Dominican Republic issued a public statement cancelling a meeting, which was slated to take place this weekend between Martelly and DR officials. I hate to say this but the Dominican Republic is right, first they get the Haitian monkeys to agree to talk directly to them and to them only; and then when the monkeys realized they have made a mistake, they sent the President to talk to CARICOM members.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH FIRE PIERRE RICHARD CASIMIR. HIRE A REAL BONAFIDE DIPLOMAT. CASIMIR WAS THE SAME MINISTER WHO SAID THAT THE UN WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR CHOLERA IN HAITI. HOW MUCH MORE DO WE NEED? SERIOUSLY? IS THIS THE BEST WE CAN DO?
