Why the Dominican Republic is building a wall to Haiti

Why D.R. Is building a wall in the border? Is that a racist country? Is that discrimination? Xenophobia?

All countries have borders.  Some need walls and some do not. 

  • The Gang violence is harder to prevent. 
  • The D.R. Deforestation and illegal charcoal trade is harder to prevent.
  • The Illegal migration is harder to prevent.
  • The Illegal human trafficking is harder to prevent.
  • The Illegal Contraband is harder to prevent. 
  • The Illegal trade (Arms,Drugs,Hazardous materials) is harder to prevent.
  • The crossing of stolen property, goods and cattle is harder to prevent.
  • The already eradicated plants, fruits and crop diseases are harder to prevent.
  • The contraband of construction materials from the illegal extraction of construction materials from rivers in the D.R. is harder to prevent.

It is not only a wall. It has roads, monitors, sensors and checkpoints. It is the first line of national border protection. This will benefit both countries in the long run.
