With the conviction that \u201cno evil lasts a hundred years,\u201d the politician has initiated a strategic path focused on achieving his party&#8217;s presidential nomination for the 2028 elections.<\/p>\n\n<p>Through his close encounters called \u201cA coffee with Abel\u201d, the leader has managed to strengthen ties with community leaders, PLD supporters, and citizens from various districts. These spaces have allowed him to hear firsthand the population&#8217;s concerns regarding critical issues for national development.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The time to restore citizen security and shield our sovereignty is getting closer every day.

Likewise, he clarified that those members of his team who hold positions within the party structure will fulfill their institutional duties, while his personal project will continue to work independently toward its long-term goals.<\/p>\n\n<p>Finally, Mart\u00ednez pointed out that he will define the formal path of his presidential aspirations while respecting the deadlines established by current electoral legislation, motivated by the support he claims to receive from citizens in each of his tours around the country.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abel Mart\u00ednez reaffirms his presidential aspirations with his sights set on 2028 The former mayor of Santiago and leader of the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD), Abel Mart\u00ednez, has made it clear that his political project remains more active than ever.
