In a significant diplomatic event held in Santo Domingo this Wednesday, Dominican Foreign Minister Roberto Álvarez formally received the copies of credentials from Leah Francis Campos, the newly appointed U.S. ambassador to the Dominican Republic. The ceremony underscored the strengthening of bilateral ties between the two nations, with discussions centering on mutual interests and collaborative opportunities. Ambassador Campos, a seasoned diplomat with a robust background in strategic advisory roles, previously served as a senior advisor in the U.S. House of Representatives and as a case officer at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from 1997 to 2012. Her extensive experience in hemispheric affairs and national security positions her as a key figure in fostering U.S.-Dominican relations. The next step in her diplomatic journey will be the presentation of her Letters of Credence to President Luis Abinader, a formal act that will officially commence her tenure as the U.S. representative in the Dominican Republic.
