The 13th Reunion of Ministers of the Rio Group will be meeting in the DR between 17 and 20 April. Thirty foreign ministers (12 from Latin America and 18 from the European Union) have announced their participation in the conference. The ministers will discuss drugs, the environment, free trade, the situation in Haiti and other regional issues. Foreign Minister Carlos Morales Troncoso explained that though Haiti is not part of the Rio Group it is of interest to the Dominican government that a delegation, headed by that nation's prime minister, be present at these proceedings. The DR will be heading the Rio Group for two years.
