U.S. Deportation Deal Backlash: Dominican opposition leaders are blasting a new U.S. memorandum that would let the DR temporarily receive “third-country” deportees, calling it a sovereignty surrender and urging the government to publish the full text. Foreign Ministry Pushback: Foreign Minister Roberto Álvarez says the deal is non-binding, transparent, and not a treaty—so it doesn’t need Congress approval. Integration at Home, Diplomacy Abroad: Antigua and Barbuda’s cabinet approved a Spanish-language expansion and a DR-focused integration programme (DRIP), while the DR keeps courting partners—signing an oil exploration agreement with Guyana and deepening free-zone cooperation with the World Free Zones Organization. Energy & Industry: DR and Guyana signed to explore the Berbice block, and the DR also moved ahead on rare-earth studies in Pedernales. Culture & Rights: ONDA reports a surge in copyright registrations, while the Duartian Institute warns the deportation arrangement could clash with Dominican immigration law.
