Dallaire met the ambassadors from the US, France and Belgium, the papal nuncio, Monsignor Giuseppe Bertello, and the dean of the diplomatic corps to tell them what Jean-Pierre had said. The three ambassadors expressed serious concern about the information and promised to consult their capitals. At a further meeting with the ambassadors on 13 January, Dallaire presented a letter from Jean-Pierre with more information.
