Santo Domingo – President Luis Abinader has revealed that the forthcoming Summit of the Americas, set for December 3 and 4 in Punta Cana, will be a landmark event uniting thousands of business leaders and heads of state from across the continent. During his address at *La Semanal con la Prensa* held at the National Palace, Abinader underscored the summit’s role as a strategic platform to highlight the Dominican Republic’s investment potential and tourism appeal. He emphasized that the event will transcend traditional political forums, incorporating multiple ‘mini-summits’ involving diverse regional sectors, including civil society. ‘This summit presents a tremendous opportunity to showcase our nation. I am confident that the Dominican Republic stands as the premier destination for investment in Latin America,’ Abinader declared. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently clarified that Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela were not invited to the summit, a decision aimed at fostering broader participation and ensuring the event’s success. This gathering marks a significant diplomatic endeavor for the Dominican government, positioning the country as a key player in regional dialogue and collaboration.
