What in hades is going on here? Are we to understand that the Dominica ambassador did this on her own, and her Prime Minister fired her. What nonsense is this? It looks like a mikey mouse kind of stupidness. Somebody explain this, please.
That’s exactly what happened here. Foreign affairs minister, PM and cabinet say they knew nothing about it. Seems like she was woefully unqualified for the job

Right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing? Dangerous!
I lived in Dominica for a few years and know the Ambassador personally. If in fact she committed her country to diplomatic relations with Syria on her own volition without the knowledge of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Prime Minister she was way out of order. I really do not understand how she could have done something like that. Doesn’t she know the rules and procedures for such things.
Some “ambassador”!!!! Her ass needs to be kicked to the curb. She was totally out of order. How stupid can some people be. I’m really disgusted. It makes all of us look like dumb asses. Dominica is better than thank. I’m glad they got rid of her.
That lady could not have signed off on such an important agreement without the knowledge of the Foreign Minister and Prime Minister. They ended up with dung on their faces and threw her off an LO SERIES MAGLEV. Reminder,this was the same Nation,DOMINICA, that was involve in the alleged Mehul Choksi matter.What has become of that?
fxxxing ” banana republic” indeed with incompetent political appointees
the prime minister knew, but to save face he pressured her to take the fall… she will still get her full salary and a next government job. time well tell
