The Treaty of Guayaquil put an end to the military campaign but problems arose due to the subsequent dissolution of Gran Colombia, among them the continuity of the border issue.

[10] On October 24, 1933, the commission destined to settle the dispute met, which was installed by the Brazilian Foreign Minister Afrânio de Melo Franco.

In it, the method to be adopted in the negotiations was discussed, since the Colombian representation maintained that it was up to the Peruvian to present what it considered to be pending problems in order to study possible solutions.

The heads of both representations were appointed to seek a solution, in addition to agreeing on a series of informative communications, until another procedure was necessary to record the points of agreement and divergence.

Finally, the Peruvian side concluded that the only possible solution was to change the border, with the luck that the triangle would return to Colombia and the trapeze to Peru.

The Peruvian conclusion was rejected by the Colombian commission, indicating that the Conference held did not discuss the Salomón-Lozano Treaty and that there was no territorial question for the change of border.

In addition, he pointed out that the solution to the observations made by Peru was to sign a series of navigation and trade agreements in the Putumayo and the Amazon.

Once again, the Peruvian proposal was rejected, with the Colombians suggesting that, for any legal problem, it was necessary to resort to the Permanent Court of International Justice in The Hague.

On February 20, 1934, Brazilian Foreign Minister Melo Franco returned to Rio de Janeiro and met with the heads of both parties to seek a solution due to the negotiations being stalled.
