Dominican Republic announces mass deportation plan

Santo Domingo.- The Dominican government has announced a large-scale plan to deport around 10,000 undocumented immigrants weekly, emphasizing that the United Nations must respect its national sovereignty. President Luis Abinader led the announcement during a press conference, supported by key government officials.
The decision followed a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council, and government spokesperson Homero Figueroa emphasized that all deportations would adhere to strict protocols respecting human rights and dignity. The initiative aims to reduce the impact of a growing migrant population on Dominican communities, with a strong focus on protecting national stability and security.
To address migration challenges, the government is implementing a comprehensive strategy combining security and human rights protections. This plan includes the enhancement of border surveillance through additional personnel, specialized equipment, and advanced technology like drones and camera systems.
It also involves measures to dismantle human trafficking networks, supported by international organizations, and the establishment of protocols for the safe and dignified return of migrants in collaboration with Haitian authorities. Further, the General Directorate of Migration will see an increase in inspectors and training programs to ensure efficient and humane handling of deportations.
The initiative responds to slow progress in international efforts, such as the Kenya-led mission to stabilize Haiti, necessitating decisive action to safeguard Dominican security. Infrastructure projects for border control centers and repatriation camps will be undertaken to manage migrant flows effectively.
The government has underscored that while defending sovereignty, it remains committed to respecting human rights and working with regional partners to address the complexities of migration in the region.
Less talk more action please!
Civilians should also collaborate, don’t just leave it all to the authorities. Report anyone who is illegally renting homes to undocumented migrants and notify the police about areas where large numbers of Haitian nationals are loitering.
Agree. But as an American and being from NYC we should actively and aggressively round up every single illegal Dominican and deport them. They are in my country the very reason Haitians are in the DR. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. I was against people like trump for building a wall. Now I am in support particularly when I read comments like these.
Exactly, they want to keep the Haitians out. But, they want like it if we deport their relatives back to DR. ????
They doing so wrong to the Haitians overthere in DR, I watched this video where an immigration agent were chasing this Haitian kid and he runs on top of a building and the agent pushed him down
go to d.r. and see with your eyes what is really going your only watching clips here and there. did you know the chopping women up? the little 14 year girl her arms were chopped up by an haitian? he didn’t get caught because he ran right to the border.
For real and they wanna manipulate sabotage and depote the Haitians and Dominicans doesn’t want to work, the Haitians are doing everything in DR
HAITIAN CONDITION IS HORRIBLE! I OVERSTAND THE D.R’s POSITION! BUT THERE IS ANOTHER SIDE TO JUST LET THESE PEOPLE CONTINUE TO BE AN EMBARASSMENT ON THE INT’L COMMUNITY AS SUCH AND IT WILL STOP AT MY COMMAND! SOON ENUFF! T.S.T.L.!
Typical words of a fool “My country!??? They should deport all you whites or who think they are from where you came from also for robbery,murder,rape and stealing the land that you now you claim is “youre country”….the GD audacity of some people. ignorance is bliss though.
I agree 100 percent with you all illegals need to go. but at least we don’t have a whole bunch of dominicans claiming citizenships in the streets of new york
The US is targeting all illegal immigrants including Dominicans and Haitians. That’s how the system works.
Tu eres un lambe culo de trump. Espero no tengas familiares esperando una residencia pues el perro de trump no quiere gente como tú aquí en estados unidos. Tienes razón en algo, los criminales con residencia aquí o que se hicieron ciudadanos y van allá a matar mujeres deben de ser los primeros en ser deportados. La cuestión de los haitianos es culpa de los desgraciados comerciantes que para embolsar más dinero contratan a haitianos en vez de dominicanos y pagarles un sueldo razonable. Sería bueno averiguar cómo entraste aquí. Tu aquí pasando las de caín y los americanos apoderándose de nuestro país. Aunque llevo 3/4 partes de mi vida aquí, no soy ciega y este país es mierda si no eres blanco europeo. También al presidente que saque las venezolanas, colombianas y demás que los adulones hombres dominicanos apoyan antes de apoyar sus compatriotas. Abinader también debiera sacar los estadounidense que están alla sin haberse hecho ciudadanos.
this been an ongoing issue with Haiti you think this is now. that country will never get any better it’s all the governments fault. guess where the rich Haitians live? guess where Haiti’s politicians live?
D.R. for decades dr has been taking care of haiti and lets not forget d.r. is a poor country too. if we don’t take control we will end up just like them and then who is going to help us united nations?
R D . Is a rich. Country…3 third biggest Gold mine in the World… 11 minllon tourist. A year…Richer in resources then Europe.
And the most fertil lands in the world… The problem is their favorite word Tacaño. They are too cheap to pay the police a living wage..no social security…bad infrastructure…. Why …?
Political class steals a lot of the resources of the nation.
