SANTO DOMINGO. - The Government today said it regrets any concern or annoyance caused unintentionally with Venezuela over president Leonel Fernandez’s shuttle diplomacy to quell tensions between that nation and Colombia, as Hugo Chavez has yet to directly communicate his stance on the effort .

A statement by the Foreign Relations Ministry says it has tried various routes to strike a direct communication with Venezuela’s Government and keep it abreast of the methodology undertaken for the purpose of peace, as it were decided in the recent Rio Group Summit in Cancún, Mexico.

“Unfortunately we didn’t get a response to those efforts to establish a direct link. In any case based on the traditional relations of friendship and brotherhood between our peoples and governments we vow respect to those considerations," the said the statement released after president Leonel Fernandez met with Foreign Relations minister Carlos Morales.

Yesterday Venezuela Foreign Relations minister Nicolas Maduro didn’t come to the country, as announced, to meet with Fernandez, who heads the effort to deal with the crisis between Venezuela and Colombia.

A meeting between Fernandez and Hugo Chavez in Venezuela on Saturday also failed to materialize, though the reasons weren’t divulged.

The cause of increased tensions between the Venezuela and reactionary Colombian regime is the decision of the US imperialists to add seven new US military bases to the three US bases already in Colombia.

The foul regime of bourgeois quislings in Bogota has no power to amend or cancel the decision of US imperialists to build-up the armed forces of US imperialism in Colombia.

Thus, mediation between Venezuela and vile Colombian regime leaves out a key party, US imperialism.

The possibility of success of mediation rests on either US imperialists joining the mediation or on Colombian quislings obtaining the imperial authority to represent US imperialists in the mediation.

The US imperialists enjoy increased tensions between Venezuela and Colombia regime; so, they are unlikely to join the mediation. Imperialists never authorize slave states, like the one in Bogota, to represent imperialism.

So, demonstrably, there is no possibility for success for the mediation.

The DR Government should wise up !

Hugo-a-go-go the Puppet Master CAN NOT and MUST NOT be trusted.

LOOK ! Hugo in action....."show the RIGHT HAND in order to hide what the LEFT HAND is really doing".

The DR should distance it's self from Hugo's Venezuela [cut the strings] now !

The DR must not tarnish it's image in Latin America and the world. Start by sending Mr. "Z" to Hugo's Venezuela on a PERMANENT VACATION to that condo overlooking the oil fields.

The DR MUST look for alternative energy sources.

LF should remember......"your judged by whom you associate with".

God save the DR, even from ourselves.....

Maduro didn't come

Venezuelan Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro did not come for the announced meeting that would have taken place yesterday in Santo Domingo with President Leonel Fernandez. The reason given by the Ministry of Foreign Relations in Venezuela was that his agenda became too complicated.

As reported in Diario Libre, the Dominican government said that President Leonel Fernandez continues to lobby between President Alvaro Uribe in Colombia and President Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. And that President Hugo Chavez himself could visit in the near future.


Let that be a lesson to you LIE-onel Fernandez; Plátano MADURO no Vuelve a Verde!

ALL take care, you too Belial.

So LIE-onel Fernandez after reading the following article let me know if the timing for your little diplomatic excursion was the best, especially since your uncle Chavez is very upset with you:

COMBUSTIBLE

El país pagaría mejora de la economía global

Santo Domingo.- La recuperación de la economía mundial significará un aumento en los precios del petróleo y también más gastos para el país, según estimaron ayer los economistas Porfirio García, Henry Hebrard y Luís Núñez.

"Belial, Most will agree, you should start by being fair, open and honest with your self and look at all the facts, not all American's are U.S Imperialist," Riosm oberves.

oooo

Riosm,

For the first time I agree with everything you say.

Strictly speaking, US imperialists are a sector or the mass of US bourgeoisie, a class composed of 8 to 10 million millionaires or capitalists, somewhere about 3% of the US people.

Strictly speaking, this mass ... not the totality ... of this class is imperialism in the USA.

Loosely speaking, US imperialism also includes the tail that is firmly attached to rear of the US bourgeoisie, a tail made up of reactionary sector of working class and reactionary sector of the middle class.

At most, imperialists and their reactionary tail constitute only about a third of the US people and US electorate.

The vast majority of the US people and electorate is either non-imperialist or even anti-imperialist, especially the liberals.

"Mr.Belial is nothing more than a commie stooge who blast U.S imperialism while confortably sitting in his texas apartment drinking budweiser and watching chuck norris movies ... he also holds a DT record for most use of the word ' bourgeois ' " old_school_trinitario guesses about my situation.

oooo

Old_school_trinitario,

You guess neither poorly nor well.

A stooge is either:

(1) an entertainer who feeds lines to the main comedian and usually serves as the butt of his or her jokes, or

(2) any underling, assistant, or accomplice.

I am indeed an accomplice, but I don't like the sound of underling.

I consider myself to be the main comedian, not the entertainer who feeds lines.

Bud is my buddy. I detest Chuck Norris. I am sitting right now. I also hold a DT record for most use of the word " proletarian. "

Old_school_trinitario, try again. Your guesses amuse.

In the meantime I think we should review all of LIE-onel Fernandez's academic submissions.

Especially those related to Diplomatic and International Studies because he is as big a failure International as he is Nationally!

Intervención de torre Atiemar cuestiona organismos de investigacion del país

La Torre Atiemar, un lujoso edificio de 21 niveles que fuera inaugurada el 17 de diciembre del 2009 en el sector La Esperilla, fue intervenida y luego retenida por parte de la DNCD, para ser depurado en el marco de una investigación que la vincula al cargamento de mil 200 kilos de cocaína.

SANTO DOMINGO, Republica Dominicana.- La intervención de la lujosa torre de apartamentos Atiemar por parte de la Dirección Nacional de Control de Drogas (DNCD), ha provocado cuestionamiento en la labor de los organismos de inteligencia del país y de la relación del gobierno con inversionistas extranjeros sin ser previamente depurado.

La Torre Atiemar, un lujoso edificio de 21 niveles que fuera inaugurada el 17 de diciembre del 2009 en el sector La Esperilla, fue intervenida y luego retenida por parte de la DNCD, para ser depurado en el marco de una investigación que la vincula al cargamento de mil 200 kilos de cocaína capturados hace poco en España procedente de la República Dominicana.

Pero esta misma construcción de lujo fue anunciada públicamente como una muestra del crecimiento de las inversiones extranjeras en el país.

Al inicio de la construcción de la torre Atiemar, aún no habitada, y ocupada por agentes antinarcóticos desde el pasado viernes, fue invitado el presidente de la República, quien dio el primer picazo el 25 de octubre del 2005.

En esa ocasión el presidente Fernández dijo, durante el acto, que el levantamiento de esta obra era una muestra de la confianza que tienen los inversionistas en la República Dominicana.

La dirección de prensa del Palacio de Gobierno publico que el presidente del Grupo Inmobiliario P&P, Arturo del Tiempo Marqués, agradeció la presencia del mandatario, y dijo que desde primer momento tuvo como idea crear un equipo mixto hispano dominicano para la ejecución de la obra.

Señaló que el diseño de la obra fue realizado por manos españolas y que la construcción de la infraestructura estará a cargo de un equipo de dominicanos.

Se ha publicado que la investigación en torno al alijo de cocaína decomisado en España el pasado 4 de marzo, relaciona a los inversionistas de dicha torre proveniente de República Dominicana, sin que se haya informado de los responsables del cargamento.
