Sum of all to achieve peace
The president expressed that with the support of all sectors, true social peace must be built in the Dominican Republic.
He declared that it is built by talking with the leaders of the communities because they are aware of the situations in their respective neighborhoods and for this there will be direct communication with the government in order to correct the problems.
When addressing those present at the closing ceremony of the First Community Standards Congress of the National District, he stressed that this activity is aimed at helping the vast majority of Dominicans who want to live in peace and achieve happiness with their loved ones in the neighborhoods.
