The Foreign Relations Ministry has announced that Nestor Ceron Suero is no longer the Dominican Ambassador in Ecuador. Foreign Relations Minister Carlos Morales Troncoso made the announcement and explained that the decision was made in the wake of complaints from the Ecuadorian Foreign Relations Ministry Protocol Department. Although the Ministry did not provide specific details through its Press Secretary Kleiner Lopez, Hoy reports that Ceron was dismissed due to a case of physical violence.
