Dominican Republic 'to deport up to 10,000 migrants a week'
Many Haitian migrants are fleeing extreme gang violence and poverty in the capital Port-au-Prince.
The Dominican Republic says it plans to deport up to 10,000 undocumented migrants a week to combat uncontrolled migration.
The plan was announced by President Luis Abinader's spokesman, Homero Figueroa, who blamed the international community's slow response to months of gang violence in neighbouring Haiti and its failure to restore stability.
Tens of thousands of Haitians have fled across the border into the Dominican Republic.
You're viewing a single thread.
The history of that Island, the stark differences between Haiti and the DR, is just painful.
Yeah man. Sigh. Just let some of these grudges and shit rest already, it's been more than a few lifelines for some of them.
