Protest at National Palace demands stricter measures against Haitian migration

Santo Domingo.- Last Friday, the Antigua Nueva Orden Dominicana, along with dozens of demonstrators, protested in front of the National Palace, holding banners with slogans such as “If Abinader doesn’t remove him, we will remove him,” “There is no room for two flags here,” and “No invasion of Haitians.” The group called on President Luis Abinader to implement stricter measures to curb Haitian migration into the Dominican Republic.

The protest began on 27 de Febrero Avenue and moved to the National Palace, led by Angelo Vasquez, who previously urged citizens to join the march from the Juan Bosch Metro station to express their opposition to illegal Haitian immigration.

The demonstration coincides with President Abinader’s recent address at the UN General Assembly, where he emphasized that stabilizing Haiti is a “strategic necessity” for regional security and called on the international community to engage more actively. The protest and the president’s stance reflect growing concerns over the Haitian migration crisis and its impact on the Dominican Republic.

Maybe if you really closed the border and stopped taking bribes. Until then theyll just be used as a political tool to create fear and division

DR needs to trade with other nations to stop/end the bio-national market with Haiti and permanently close the border.

Stop the hate, stop the hate. 80 percent of Dominicans are Haitian descent.. the border is good for DR, some of you are talking nonsense .The bribe has been good for y’all.Can construction survive without cheap labor from Haitians?Agriculture? Poor Dominicans that are selling goods on the border?Which country will accept the garbage from DR that have regulations? Name them for me please…. The same way racists in DR want to treat Haitians the same way they will be treated someday ( KARMA) Ignorant don’t speak for the good Dominicans that I know.One blood one nation Hispanola.
