Santo Domingo.- President Leonel Fernandez has been contacted by former Inter-American Bank (IDB) president Enrique Iglesias to attempt a mediation to resolve the political conflict in Paraguay unleashed by its ousted president Fernando Lugo’s congressional impeachment last week.

Dominican ambassador in Spain Cesar Medina, who made the revelation Wednesday, said Fernandez agreed to hear Iglesias’ concerns and discuss Paraguay’s political problems stemming from Lugo’s ouster. “Mr. Enrique is Uruguayan and seeks Leonel’s (Fernandez) mediation in an attempt to resolve the conflict in Paraguay from the congressional impeachment of President Lugo.”

In his column published by listin.com.do, the diplomat said despite leaving a long list of activities pending in Spain, “at the last minute, nearly at midnight, it was necessary to add to the schedule activities that he couldn't fail to comply, such as an interview with Mr. Enrique Iglesias, Secretary General of the Segib (Secretariat General of Ibero-America),” and a prominent Uruguayan economist.

“Fernandez has become a benchmark of international political mediation when crises arrive at the highest level of tension,” Medina said.

Better let Enrique Iglesias try to middle that mess, which there will be no winners or benefits for the DR.
Medina's brown nosing of his soon to be former boss, knows no limit, and is even disgustingly funny to outsiders.
Medina's boot licking is attaining legendary status, and is only rivaled by previous Trujillo's sycophants.

“Fernandez has become a benchmark of international political mediation when crises arrive at the highest level of tension,”

I certailny agree...
He did the same with Zelaya..
The same with chavez and Colombia..
Now , for sure he can take care of Paraguay...



The burro of gurabo would only create more conflicts..

Go Leonel..! A proven statesman ! Make us Proud!!

@JoseanoI love the intellectual answer that Joseano gave me..
It shows his intellectual coefficient besides copy and paste...

What a clown!

@scanviking: 1.- Learn to spell 2.- you are FAR from Denmark =( friggin' liar) 3.-You are VERY far from dominican reality,or latinamerican issues.. you live in your own utopical world , like Joseano..

It takes a REAL statesman to do what Leonel is doing..A real conciliator with dispute resolution experience... If you think that you are better than him why don't you do it yourself?

Both of you guys , are simply low life , street jerks...

How could Leonel who has clearly stated he supports the Chabestia Axis be a mediator? I thought mediators had to at least appear unbiased!

Pepe..
dont forget that Leonel is the most diplomatic president that we ever had: he so smart he could dance with ghadafi , Obama, Uribe of Colombia, chavez,the EU, UN, Haiti, zelaya and fidel castro at the same time!

no scandiviking=joseano


Your lack of knowledge is REALLY impressive, not to mention your super bias position..

I guess that you REALLY need to read a little bit more before your talk..So you don't embarrass yourself..

I guess that Leonel has done a superb job in international relationship,,

That's why he is the President, and you will never be anything besides a cheap speculator with a remarkable and disproportionate twist of reality ..

Lf would be nothing if it was not for Mr Troncoso's advice in international affairs and for NBC

covering the litigation between URIBES and CHAVEZ in DR for 4 hrs ,a few years ago ,paid for by

the OBAMA administration. They were ready to take the case to the international court That is

when US asked LF to handle the situation. He thought that was a jump start as a LA mediator

and a place in the UN Uribes is a conservative in Colombia, placed by the USA. When we got

booted out of (MANTA) Ecuador by not extending the lease in that Pacific air base ,Colombia gave

them the OK to build7 bases in COLOMBIAN territory. No doubt LF is an opportunist and a clever

politician. but he is out for himself and what he can achieve in his political career in his world

wide visits at DR expense,so he is a user, As a president he suchs.DR could not be in any worse

shape than it is now!!

Once Wikileaks released the US Embassy Cables from DR to the US State Department, the WHOLE World now knows what most Dominicans had come to find out.

That Lie-onel is a back stabbing (Danilo 2008 and talking about Chavez’s mediocrity behind his back), chicken-shit (afraid to fire corrupt generals) light weight (a lot of fast talk like used car salesman)……... He is HAS-BEEN that NEVER WAS, and NEVER WILL BE!


His next" Project" is to Bamboozle the Dominican Masses by trying to turn his former secretary into Evita Peron; Don't Cry for Santo Domingo!
