President Luis Abinader for the first time has asserted that the Haitians need to tackle the crisis in Haiti and break from the historic tradition of blaming other nations.

Abinader emphasized that since September 2021, his government has been advocating for effective measures to address the crisis. “I am responsible for Dominican security, and we will continue to take all necessary steps,” he affirmed.
