Santo Domingo.- Minister of Economy, Planning, and Development, Pável Isa Contreras, stated that the Dominican Republic has managed to emerge unscathed from international inflation aggravated by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

The minister stated that productive development will not be possible without the participation of the population.
The minister emphasized the ministry’s commitment to accompanying municipalities to prevent land with agricultural vocation from being urbanized. Additionally, the state will not promote projects that affect said territories. Contreras informed that the results of the tenth National Population and Housing Census will be presented by July or August of this year. The coverage survey of the uprising is currently underway.
The event will be moderated by Isa Contreras and will include Mileyka Brugal, the president of the Board of Directors of the Puerto Plata Chamber of Commerce; Santiago Álvarez, the executive director of the Strategic Development Plan of the Espaillat province; Fernando Capellán, the president of the Association for the Development of Santiago, and researcher Rafael Emilio Yunén.
