Santo Domingo.- The president of the Duartiano Institute, Wilson Gómez Ramírez, has condemned the United Nations Organization’s recent call for the Dominican Republic to accommodate more Haitian nationals under refugee status, describing it as a new attack against the country.
In a statement, Gómez Ramírez asserted that this demand is another assault on the Dominican Republic’s sovereignty and represents the absurdity underlying the indifference of various international organizations and powerful nations, including the United States, Canada, and France.
He emphasized the need for unity among Dominicans in defending the nation’s independence and sovereignty, invoking the legacy of Juan Pablo Duarte, the founding father of the Dominican Republic.
Gómez Ramírez vehemently rejected the claims of foreign entities and criticized Dominicans who align with these interests, branding them as traitors. He advocated for continued and reinforced repatriation efforts for illegal and undocumented foreigners, particularly Haitians, citing their significant impact on the country’s resources and budget.
The statement emphasized the importance of supporting the General Directorate of Immigration both financially and logistically to ensure the effective enforcement of migration laws and uphold the sovereignty of the Dominican Republic.
