I don't believe that the government received a complaint from the Senegalese minister. Someone told you that, but perhaps it was a personal opinion. If it was serious, why didn't they ask one of our ministers who was there? Ms. Verner spoke with the delegation, and everything was fine. I think that this is important. Like Ms. Boucher said, everything was fine in the opinion of Mr. Diouf, who sent our government a letter saying that he had received a proper welcome. Why would he write such a letter if this were not true?
