Dominican Defense Minister Lieutenant-General Rubén Darío Paulino Sem believes that Haiti is making a leap forward in the concretization of the formation of its army , dissolved 22 years ago. He stresses that in this rebirth, Haiti can already be assured of the solidarity support, for the development of its army, of the Dominican military authorities.
"To the extent that we can support Haitians in the development of their army, we will support them," said Minister Minister Paulino Sem "We are interested that they have Haitian army because they are also interested to have a secure border [...] I think it will be a big step that Haiti is going to make with the army," ecalling that an army was made to defend its territory and not to invade another territory..."
He urged Dominican citizens not to fear any invasion of Haiti "We can not fear that Haiti will invade the Dominican Republic" stressing "they are nationalists and patriots, just like us, they are interested in being sovereign in their country [...]"
