Haiti - DR : The candidate of the PDI advocates the construction of a wall separating the island in two
Thursday in Upper Manhattan (NY) Ramfis Domínguez Trujillo, grandson of the dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo, candidate for the presidency of the Dominican Republic in 2020 of the National Democratic Party (PDI), a nationalist and populist party, said he was in favor of the construction of a wall on the border between the Dominican Republic and Haiti to put an end to illegal immigration from Haiti.

"We have the right to do this [...] build a wall from north to south to protect future generations from this invasion," said Ramfis Domínguez Trujillo, recalling the expulsion of thousands of Haitians in irregular migration territory Dominican since the beginning of the year 2018 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-23855-haiti-dr-review-of-the-strengthened-security-operation-on-the-dominican-border.html and the reinforcement of the means of surveillance at the border to face the massive arrival of Haitians "desperate in search of a job and a better life" https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-23779-icihaiti-dr-follow-up-of-the-implementation-of-the-surveillance-system-at-the-border.html https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-23724-haiti-flash-dr-new-military-reinforcements-long-range-uavs-and-cameras-on-the-border.html

In the same vein, the Democratic Councilor Reverend Ruben Diaz said "I agree with him, every country has the right to defend its borders [...] The construction of a wall along the border to defend his sovereignty is not criminal [...]"

The American-Dominican Senator Adriano Espaillat (Democratic Party, elected to the House of Representatives in New York State) told the press that he was opposed to "the construction of the wall they want to build in the Dominican Republic" Saying that the proposal made by the grandson of dictator Rafael Trujillo Molina, aimed at controlling illegal immigration, is out of place "There are people who support this, because there are some who support the wall proposed by Donald Trump."

However, opponents of the construction of a border wall in the Dominican Republic believe that such statements fuel racism and discrimination between the two brother peoples of the island. They say that the situation between Haiti and the Dominican Republic is not a question of politics or sovereignty, but a humanitarian issue...

Recall that this wall project along the border returns episodically in recent years, carried by Dominican Nationalist Parties, whenever migratory tensions arise or the number of Haitians in irregular migration situation in the Dominican Republic increase.
