Some navy the DR has. It takes bribes and kickbacks from Dominican fishermen that raid and plunder another nations territorial waters.

The DR wants to talk. I say to the Bahamian officals blow the bastards out of the water and the matter is closed.

The DR navy couldn't sink one of their own ships if it had to. So it isn't a challange.

That's one way to deal with. Also, while they are at it they can blow the US Coast guard out of the water too for increasing economic, security, environmental and resource costs for The US taxpayer. The criminal tyrants clearly operate FAR outside of US waters and invade other foreign nations sovereign national boundaries all the way down into northern south america.
