Soraya Suárez reaffirms national sovereignty and highlights Santiago’s role in Dominican development
The deputy for the province of Santiago, Soraya Suárez, made an urgent call to the Haitian authorities to heed the recommendations of President Luis Abinader and international organizations in the face of the serious security crisis affecting Haiti. The legislator emphasized the need to mitigate the impact of the armed gangs that keep the neighboring nation in a state of anxiety.
Hopefully, in this case, due attention will be paid to the requests of President Luis Abinader, of all Dominicans, and of the Haitian people, who continue to suffer the onslaught of those gangs that have decided to finish off what little remains in that country.

Regarding the position of the Dominican Republic, Suárez emphasized that, while the country maintains its commitment to solidarity, this should not translate into a commitment that affects national interests. The congresswoman reiterated that the Dominican government has the primary responsibility to ensure the progress and well-being of its own citizens.
Defense of immigration controls
The legislator was emphatic in supporting the tightening of immigration policies. According to Suárez, respect for Dominican laws is non-negotiable and any foreigner, regardless of their nationality, must face legal consequences if they commit offenses within the national territory.
- Unrestricted defense of national sovereignty against external pressures.
- Rigorous application of immigration laws to ensure border control.
- International solidarity that does not compromise the stability and interests of the Dominican Republic.
“We want to help you, but you cannot impose anything on us. We have every right to defend our sovereignty,” the congresswoman pointed out.
Santiago: economic engine and capital of development
During her participation in the 41st session of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), held in the Heart City, Suárez highlighted Santiago’s economic boom. The legislator noted that the province has consolidated itself as a strategic hub for international events and a fundamental pillar for the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
Suárez concluded by highlighting the dynamism of the Cibao region, reaffirming his vision that Santiago continues to be a key demarcation and a protagonist in the integral development of the Dominican Republic.
