Chancellery will prioritize relation with Haiti from the civil society
SD. Proactive is the concept which sustains the core idea which Chancellor Andres Navarro will center his management of the Ministry of Foreign Relations (MINEX) and whose priority is to strengthen bilateral relations with Haiti, including ties with the citizens of both countries.

"An environment that I am interested in exploring a good deal in relation to Haiti is all of the ties that the Chancellery can create with the Dominican civil society and the Haitian civil society, because the development of both people not only depends on good relations between the governments or on commercial ties," said Navarro yesterday during a visit to Diario Libre.

He added that on this point he feels that the organizations of the Dominican civil society could cooperate from the organize Asian of development point of view with their Haitian counterparts. And this focus on bilateral relations with the neighboring country will begin today with a meeting with the Haitian Chancellor Pierre Duly Brutus, during which he noted they would work together on a joint agenda. At the same time, he said that this Thursday a delegation of Dominican ministers and businessmen would deal with commercial issues in the Haitian capital, Port au Prince.

The official also pointed out that the Chancellery has ordered changes designed to build the structure of this type, by elevating the Department of Haitian Affairs to a Directorate General level, and creating a diploma in Dominican - Haitian relations at the Institute of Higher Education in Diplomatic and Consular Training.

He said that this policy of bilateral strengthening also will extend to the countries of the Caribbean and Central America.

Changes will continue

Navarro indicated that the changes that began before his arrival with the audit of the MINEX payrolls will continue and structural changes will be added, such as the creation of the directorate of Information, Ethics and Transparency and the elevation from department to a directorate of the area of Human Rights.

"80% of what has to be done in the state does not require more resources, but rather more political will," said the Chancellor.

In relation to the human resources and the payroll, he indicated that he would continue to carry out the normalization process but that he did not think "it would be effective to create shocks." "I believe in slow, progressive and sustained improvements," he pointed out.

Strategy

Within the objectives of the Chancellor is that of establishing a strategic plan which guides the foreign-policy and whose conception will begin at a workshop programmed for the end of this month, where 13 experienced ambassadors and 10 consuls will analyzed together with him the situation of the Dominican foreign-policy.

This workshop, he noted, will be the basis for the celebration next January of the first forum on foreign-policy during which the plan will be structured.

Among the issues that will be included in this plan, he mentioned the creation of a system of co-development with the Dominican diaspora and the communities in the Dominican Republic, as well is a diplomatic intelligence unit which will allow them to be proactive in diplomatic relations.
