US embassy cable - 05SANTODOMINGO4671

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

raised with Deputy Foreign Minister Alejandra Liriano our 
request that the Dominican Republic consider assisting in 
resettlement of the 15 Chinese nationals of Uighur ethnicity 
who have been approved for release from detention at
