Secretary of Foreign Relations Carlos Morales Troncoso met with Arab League Secretary General Amro Musa yesterday to discuss the possibility of his organization supporting the DR in its bid for a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council. During the meeting Morales announced that the DR was taking on temporary presidency of the February 2007 Latin American meeting between the Rio Group and the Arab League. Morales outlined the benefits that the Arab League nations would obtain from relations with the DR, as the country moves towards implementing the DR-CAFTA treaty.
