1850-June-15: The Haitian government acceded to Green’s demand, officially recognizing the American commercial agents as consuls. Following this agreement, the American flag was displayed at the consulates, marking a significant step in the regularization of commercial relations between the two nations. This concession by the Haitian government was a pragmatic attempt to de-escalate tensions with the United States while the empire dealt with the ongoing threat of war on its eastern border. Despite this progress, the broader issues of debt repayment and the independence of the Dominican Republic remained central points of friction.
