Minority parties get a say on Dominican nationality row

Santo Domingo.- President Danilo Medina visited minority pro-government PRSC party president Federico –Quiqui- Antún Thursday morning, as part of his consultations with political leaders, to seek a consensus leading to drafting a bill on immigration.

Medina arrived with a 3-vehicle motorcade in Antún’s house at 9:20am, making him the fifth political leader he meets with so far this week.
