On May 14, 2025, Dominican President Luis Abinader gathered the former presidents of his country, Hipólito Mejía, Leonel Fernández, and Danilo Medina, to inform them about the situation in Haiti and warn them about the future directions of his policy... The security crisis in Haiti and its risks for the Dominican Republic were the main topics of the meeting.

This meeting, announced in advance, was an opportunity for President Luis Rodolfo Abinader Corona to once again demonstrate that the Haiti issue is the cornerstone of his political strategy since his first inauguration on August 16, 2020. The "Dominican-ness" of the president, with his Levantine family roots, is reignited each time he highlights the Haitian problem.
