Haiti - Politic : Dominicans will support the Mission in Haiti
Roberto Álvarez, the Dominican Chancellor of Foreign Affairs, reiterated this week before the UN Security Council that the Dominican Republic will collaborate with the Multinational Security Support Mission in Haiti by offering medical assistance to treat if necessary wounded, members of the mission, emphasizing " we will not provide any other assistance or collaboration with regard to military questions, our support is strictly humanitarian in the area of our hospitals," recalling the firm positions of President Abinader of May 13, 2024 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-42333-haiti-news-zapping.html
Furthermore, Roberto Álvarez added that another specific support that cannot be missing and that must increase for this Mission is financial "that is why we urgently call on all the countries that have pledged funds for this Mission in Haiti to respect their offers, to submit them now, and to maintain their contributions in a sustained manner.
To countries that have not yet considered contributing, we strongly urge them to consider doing so with the urgency required by the situation in Haiti."
Likewise, he recognized the clear vision of Prime Minister Garry Conille expressed during his presentation on the direction that Haiti should take and insisted that the Security Council accelerate the application of resolutions 2653 and 2699, relating to the embargo on weapons and sanctions for sponsors and criminal organizations in all their forms in Haiti.
Álvarez praised the commitment and solidarity shown by the international community, notably the United States, Canada and Kenya; the Caribbean Community (CARICOM); the leadership of UN Secretary-General António Guterres; and the work of the Security Council.
