In addition to bilateral matters, the Presidents also discussed regional, hemispheric, and multilateral issues of mutual interest and concern. They reiterated their commitment to addressing challenges such as food security, energy security, and the impact of climate change, particularly for small island developing states. Upholding the rule of law, protecting sovereignty and territorial integrity, promoting democracy, and respecting human rights were underscored as essential pillars for regional peace and security.

The joint declaration underscores the shared vision of the Dominican Republic and Guyana to deepen cooperation, strengthen ties, and work collectively toward the sustainable development and prosperity of both nations.

You are the president of the Dominican Republic, not of Haiti. That is not your job, your job is to serve and protect the Dominican people and protect DR territory and sovereignty. Those people are ungrateful regardless of how much we help them.

The little bit of sugar used in face to face international relations goes a long way to favorably influence dealings with the foreign community.

The Dominican Republic is not responsible for lifting Haiti up from its abyss and chaos. We’ve done enough for them, let the international players like the US, Canada, and France handle that problem.
