Santo Domingo, FEB (Latin press) The United Left Movement (MIU) said today that the firm for the Dominican government of an agreement with the United States for the exploration of rare earths is a “suspicious and dangerous” procedure, which the security touches national.
During a press conference chaired by his secretary general, Miguel Mejía, the MIU presented a statement in which he affirmed that the visit to this country of the Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, opened many questions about his real purposes and left a Stela of judgments when it ended.
The MIU said that, curiously, it was the foreign diplomat and not the Dominican government, who revealed to the country that the administration of Luis Abinader signed a contract with the US Army Corps of Engineers, which protected the explorations to determine the existence of rare earths In the country.
Facets play national security
He warned that it is a suspicious proceeding, strategic and with facets that touch the national security and economic independence of the Dominican Republic.
Precisely, this character must have been presented and approved by the Congress of the Republic, he said.
Why has something so important stayed away from the scrutiny of legislators, the Dominican press and society? Why secrecy in this contract and its absolute lack of transparency? Miu wondered.
Grant rights to a stranger diplomatic
He continued: What right do we grant a foreign diplomat to announce, as if it were an American domestic policy issue, which is strictly a Dominican issue?
The Left Organization considered vital for this analysis the announcement of the president in the joint press conference with Marco Rubio that the country has a reserve of more than 100 million metric tons of rare earths, and that the same “is very important for the United States ».
After commenting that the rare earths are those that contain 17 chemical elements, essential for the manufacture of modern technology, it caught the attention that some specialists question the estimate cited by the ruler.
