Janet Napolitano and Leonel Fernandez in the National Palace.
SANTO DOMINGO. - Dominican Republic and the United States today signed three agreements on drug trafficking, security and human trafficking during a meeting between president Leonel Fernandez and US Homeland Security Dept. secretary Janet Napolitano.
Napolitano, before heading to the National Palace, signed a memo for the start of operations of unmanned aircraft Predator, according to Presidency Antinarcotics adviser Marino Vinicio Castillo, who was in the meeting in the US Embassy.
Upon leaving Fernandez’s office, the US official declined providing details of the agreements, but called them productive because in her view help bolster trade and security between both countries.
Napolitano also hailed Santo Domingo-Washington ties
The press however wasn’t allowed to ask questions to the senior US official, who arrived accompanied by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) bureau chief David Aguilar, and Undersecretary for international affairs, Alan Bersin.
Drug traffickers use Dominican Republic as a bridge the U.S. and Europe.

Stupid! Everyone knows that US government is complicit in every drug deal.. US government just wants drug dependent states in the region ripe for exploitation.
DR should join Cuba and Venez and hold out against treachery.
Restricting imports and a 90 day customs period would prevent illegal drug imports plus the Chinese navy and air force could be contracted to patrol the sea and the sky.
It is a pity that politicians fall pray to US treachery.

More BS from both governments. It will always be business as usual - corruption and drugs. Try and stop the RD politicians, the business elite, generals and ex-generals from drug dealing and corruption. It won't happen, and US politicians will continue to allow it as long as RD stays a US puppet.
Some of us aren't stupid. We know the truth.

Of course the press wasn't allowed to ask questions, because the US doesn't want to answer questions about it's knowledge and acceptance of RD drug and corruption. They don't want to answer questions about Art Tarlow's murder, and the involvement of Leonel's friend, Armando. They don't want to answer questions about Sunny Blue Sky's land take back, by guns to his head, by the man who sold him the land, or American Bob's murder in Sosua. They don't want to answer questions about how dangerous that RD has become.

Hello! knock, knock.
Missing the point here. The sovereign DR air space is being compromised by the operation of these spy Predators.
Unless the operators and controls are in DR territory, the DR does not have any real controls of the missions of these aircraft.
My question is:
What is the quid pro quo in this case? or what does the DR get in exchange for allowing these spy planes in our air space? Do the DR military have a say so in the surveillance?

The Americans want their spy planes over every country so they can start killing innocent people with no remorse. These plans are like some video game where you can kill someone and you feel joy. The drug problem is in the US keep it there
hey! idiot.
the problem is in the dr and south america
the dr is one trash can in the caribbean.
the people ,of the dr are only into scams and fraud and the only way they they can make any money is to sell drugs rob cars, shop lift, sell phoney real estate and in many cases sell their so-called wifes and so-called children.
u need spy planes but the us needs also to drop a couple of big bombs on this trash can of an country and do the world a hugh favor.

so how u have spy planes and the choo choo train.
all aboard.
