Dominican Unity on Haiti: Joint UN Plea for Peace

Dominican Republic's Unified Stance on Haiti: Ex-Presidents and Abinader Join Forces in UN Plea Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic – June 6, 2025 – In a significant display of unity, former Dominican presidents have joined forces with current President Luis Abinader to address the escalating crisis in neighboring Haiti. The leaders have jointly sent letters to the United Nations, urging international intervention to stabilize the volatile situation. CDN news anchor Katherine Hernandez, in a recent commentary on the program "Despierta con CDN," emphasized the importance of this coordinated approach. "That the presidents have sent these letters to the heads of state seems important to me... it's a good message." Hernandez highlighted the collective effort to push for a UN hybrid mission with logistical and operational leadership, echoing President Abinader's own calls for such intervention during previous UN appearances. This unified diplomatic initiative marks a departure from previous instances of disunity among Dominican political figures on the Haiti issue. The joint action signals a strong, united front in seeking a resolution to the crisis, carrying significant weight on the international stage. The hope is that this unified pressure will translate into tangible action from the UN, leading to a more stable and secure future for Haiti.
