Mwen Ba Dominikin Gabel Pou Li Envayi Ayiti
The Dominicans have Army, Navy, Coast guard. The Haitians have "Nothing". Do you think that one day we might end up be a colony of the Dominican Republic? Are you ready to become second class citizen under the occupation of the Dominicans?
On Tuesday, November 28, 2013 Dominican President Danilo Medina met at the Dominican National Palace all its forces, including: senior defense, enforcement and security officials, officials of the army and police, officials charged with protecting national security and the border. The meeting was to develop a strategy to deal with Haiti.
Is this a show of force on the part of the Dominican Government?
Wall between Haiti and Dominican Republic for separation
Officials from the Dominican Republic are expressing disapprobation at the erection of a wall in Carrizal, Elías Piña undertaken by the Haitian government without due consultation from the other country. The wall is to act as a border between the two nations, dividing initially this one community from the Dominican Republic. Now, calls are being made for the project, initiated by the Haitian Government, to be expanded to encompass the entire border.
These law makers are, essentially, suggesting that the government of the Dominican Republic join with Haiti to build a wall separating their two countries which will clearly outline the official border that was created in 1929 and ratified by a treaty 7 years later. Haiti's stated reason for the wall is to have better command of the border when monitoring the movement of good and the collection of taxes across it.
Vatican's envoy wants a humane solution in Dominican-Haitian Crisis
The new Vatican envoy to the Dominican Republic, Jude Thaddeus Okolo, is asking for restraint in regard to the crisis that has been evolving between the Dominican Republic and Haiti. We must find a humane solution, according to the envoy.
Envoy Jude Thaddeus Okolo also suggested for the Catholic Church to serve as mediator between the two parties is needs be.
This is a very good suggestion coming from the religious community. However, there might be one problem:
Envoy Jude Thaddeus Okolo is a Black man and being such, the Dominicans might think that he, also, is Haitian descent as well.

On Friday, November 29, 2013 the Dominican government, President Danilo Medina, called their intelligence agencies and state security and ordered them to do whatever is in their power to avoid any confrontation at the border between Haiti and Dominican Republic.
Danilo Medina further instructed the Dominican Armed Forces to avoid excess force.
According to the Dominican authority, he does not want their action to affect the image of the of the Dominican Republic in the world.
Martelly speech at CARICOM regarding Dominican ruling - VIDEO
Here is the video of the speech delivered by Haitian President Michel Martelly at the CARICOM recently. The speech actually contributed to the final decision of the Caribbean Community to defer a Dominican request to become a member of the trade bloc.
We need to give credit to where credit is due.
President Michel Martelly defended the nation very elegantly at CARICOM.
One day following the the CARICOM decision, Dominican Republic announced that they would no longer meet with Haitian officials to talk about a court ruling.
My conclusion to this is that the Dominican government thought that they would proceed with their policy while engaging us in never ending meetings.
Dominican officials say no to future meetings with Haitians
Officials in the Dominican Republic have decided no longer to meet with Haitian authorities to talk about the recent court ruling in their country. I don't know if the decision from CARICOM to cancel the recent application of Dominican Republic to join the organization has anything to do with it; however, this sounds like they really feel it.
Since the Dominican Republic has decided to remove the citizenship of some of its population because of their link to Haiti nothing have been effective in making them reconsider their racism act. The decision of CARICOM to defer their request to become a member of the trade bloc certainly catches their attention.
