"We reject the installation of refugee camps for Haitians in the DR," says Vargas Maldonado
The presidential candidate for the Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD), Miguel Vargas Maldonado, reiterated on Friday his position of rejection of the attempt to install refugee camps for Haitians in Dominican territory.
“We reject any attempt to establish refugee camps for Haitians in the Dominican Republic,” Vargas Maldonado said.
Likewise, he stressed that, “we are the ones who have collaborated and supported the Haitian people the most, but we cannot continue to be burdened with any solution to Haiti that has to do with the Dominican Republic.”
Participating in the special program of the Corripio Communications Group in the run-up to the May 19 presidential elections, Miguel Vargas Maldonado called on Dominicans and PRD militants to “defend the sovereignty” of the Dominican Republic.
“We have to defend our sovereignty, defend our territory and in that sense we are committed as a person and as the Dominican Revolutionary Party,” he said.
Maldonado took advantage of the occasion to present his proposals on public spending, security, migration, among others.
Very Wise decision. Any area that Haiti has touched has become nothing more than a compost dump. Contain these warlord minded Haitians in their own country and protect the sanctity and wonders of the Dominican Republic.
Facts
What about the nearly $1 billion dollar trade surplus the Dominican Republic profits with Haiti each year. Is that also a burden ? And why not send some of your many military troops to help fight the gangs? Jamaica, Bahamas, Kenya, Chad and others are doing it.
The trade surplus is a mutual exchange. Your acting like the haitians are getting nothing out of it. Also, no one has sent any troops to haiti. Only the Kenyas were willing to sent people, then they backed out a few months ago.
