iciHaiti - DR : Haiti at the center of the electoral campaign of Dominican nationalists
The candidate for the Senate of the National district Vinicio Castillo Semán, the influential leader of the Party "Progressive National Force" (FNP, opposition of the hard nationalist right) wishes that the relations with Haiti will be a central question in the next electoral debate before the elections of this year.

"The Haitian question should be at the center of the electoral debate to come. The country must force all candidates to adopt clear positions on the issue of the survival of DR," said Vinicio on his Twitter account.

He also indicated that questions such as the construction of a border wall between the Dominican Republic and Haiti, migration policy, the problem of the thousands of Haitian women who come to give birth for free in the Dominican Republic must also be debated.

Regarding the border wall, he explains that "[...] it is not a wall of hatred or hostility, but a wall of respect, which allows commercial development between the two Nations and stricter migratory control of the border [...] But also to demonstrate to the International Community that the Dominican Republic will defend its territory and that the international cannot see our country as the most comfortable solution to settle Haitian problems, to avoid assuming their responsibilities. "

Regarding the massive deliveries of Haitian women in Dominican hospitals, he rebelled and recalled "No country in the world would allow 50% of its beds to be occupied by foreigners in an irregular migratory situation, only the Dominican Republic does it, with a cost of more than 5 billion pesos per year https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-21014-haiti-dr-more-than-5-billion-pesos-for-the-delivery-of-women-from-haiti.html , to the detriment of the quality of health of the poorest Dominicans."

Furthermore Castillo Semán and Rafael Paz Executive Director of the National Council for Competitiveness (CNC), affirms that "The Dominican Republic does not have the possibility of helping Haiti more than it does, without affecting our country its own economy."
