Wally Brewster refutes Albania visit rumors, denies Dominican negotiations
Washington, D.C.- James “Wally” Brewster, former U.S. ambassador to the Dominican Republic, has denied recent speculation in Dominican media regarding his visit to Albania. In a statement, Brewster clarified that the trip was prompted by an American financial group’s interest in evaluating the potential expansion of Eco Building, a company specializing in innovative construction technology. His team conducted an on-site inspection to verify the technology’s effectiveness, a routine practice for his organization.
Brewster noted that Dominican Housing Minister Carlos Bonilla was consulted for technical input due to his engineering expertise and was invited, along with other international representatives, to observe the project. However, he emphasized that no negotiations, agreements, or letters of intent were made with the Dominican government during or after the visit. Brewster also addressed reports from a London newsletter that linked the trip to stock manipulation, calling the claims inaccurate and unrelated to his activities.
Lamenting the spread of misinformation, Brewster stressed the need for transparency and fact-checking to prevent misrepresentation of efforts aimed at exploring innovative solutions. He reaffirmed his commitment to integrity and rejected all baseless allegations, concluding, “These are the facts. Any other speculation is false.”
