Eduardo Estrella, president of Dominicans for Change Party (DxC), criticized that the government of President Danilo Medina has neglected to address the country’s problems as it concentrates on its reelection project. “This has plunged the Dominican population into uncertainty,” he said. He said arrogance and intolerance have taken over the government.
The political leader lamented the irresponsible way in which the higher echelons of the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) have taken the party internal crisis to the National Congress.
“Have you seen in this proposal to modify the Constitution anything that benefits youth, Dominican women, citizen safety, as well as job creation? No. It’s just that they want to modify it for their own benefit,” Estrella said.
He spoke during the launching of the candidacy of Gregory Castro for mayor for the municipality of San Pedro de Macorís. Estrella stated that the time has come to take a step forward, to stop the PLD in its plans to continue in government. He urged the government to desist in changing the Constitution.
He urged the head of state and his officials to make the most of the time left over from their mandate to govern.
