Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Photograph taken on the occasion of one of the two 1933 border meetings (at Ouanaminthe, Haiti, and Dajabon, Dominican Republic) between presidents Sténio Vincent (center) and Rafael Trujillo (right, holding hat) to iron out points that had not been settled by the Vasquez-Borno border treaty of 1929. A final treaty was signed in March 1936 but it did not prevent the infamous Haitian Massacre (sometimes called Parsley Massacre in the U.S.) in September 1937.
The second man from the left is Élie Lescot, then Haitian ambassador to the Dominican Republic, and later to the United States, who (actively supported by Trujillo) engineered the overthrow of Vincent in 1941 and took over as president of Haiti.
