Dominican FM on Haiti gang violence crisis: Spillover threat? | Talk to Al Jazeera
The solution to the problem in Haiti is not for everyone to move to the Dominican Republic. Without documents from their own country, they will always be illegal migrants in any country in the world.
How will they hold serious elections in that country if they do not have identity documents, official identification from their own country?

If the idea of ONG's is to help Haitians in some way. Help they need desperately to rebuild their country. (Help them in their own country, help them with Haitian passports so they can migrate normally not illegally )
ONG's are achieving the opposite, fomenting hatred, resentment and division within two countries.
ONG's should be more responsible with the objectivity of the content and avoid the “dataless” inaccuracies that spread hate, division and obviously animosity towards Dominicans.
Haitians are not stateless; Haitians are never stateless - Even if they are born in China, they are still Haitian.
Read the Haitian constitution.: Article 11 Haitian Nationality - Any person born of a Haitian father or Haitian mother who are themselves native-born Haitians and have never renounced their nationality possesses Haitian nationality at the time of birth.

Read the Dominican constitution.:Article 18. Dominican Nationality
1. The sons and daughters of a Dominican mother or father.
3. People born in the national territory, --- with the exception of --- the sons and daughters of foreign members of diplomatic and consular legations, of foreigners that find themselves in transit or reside illegally in Dominican territory.
When ONG's and News are not objective. They only open the door for greater divisions between both countries who, although they have huge differences (Cultural, Political, Economic, Sociological and above all Historical), currently live in peace as two sovereign countries, each on their side of the island. And each one with its own challenges to solve.
The solution is not, and never will, to move an entire population, millions of john doe and jane does, without official Haitian documents, to live illegally in another country. This is crazy!
Migration, legal migration is a global phenomenon and should not be condemned. If it follows the legal procedures established by each receiving country migrants would be legal.
Let’s promote legalization at origin first. Minimally identification papers and/or a passport. Otherwise, you are inviting them to live illegally, to work as illegals, to live subject to deportation.
To promote that receiving countries break their own sovereign laws and accept millions of undocumented immigrants who cross the border illegally is an international absurdity.
What these videos want to promote? Promote illegality, disorder, human trafficking, inequality?
Each country has its sovereign rules on migration and especially on naturalization.
And in the Dominican Republic, like many countries, nationality is not acquired by the simple fact of being born on Dominican soil. Nor for living illegally for many years.
Illegality never generates rights. Illegality does not expire over time.
