Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether she has had discussions with her Dominican Republic counterpart regarding reports of plans to build a wall between that country and Haiti.
No minister or official within the FCDO has discussed the issue of a wall with counterparts in the Dominican Republic. We will continue to encourage all actors to work constructively and cooperatively with the Haitian and Dominican Republic authorities to find solutions to issues of concern to both sides.
