A source at the Ministry of Foreign Relations told Hoy that seven members of the Dominican delegation to the United Nations have been suspended for disciplinary reasons. The suspensions were carried out earlier this month after the suspended personnel reportedly left their posts without permission. The suspended members received salaries between US$7,000 and US$10,000 per month and the source at the Ministry said that it is unjust that people receiving those levels of salaries aren't doing their jobs. The source said the move could be repeated in the next days at embassies and consulate offices around the world. The unnamed source at the Ministry of Foreign Relations claimed that many of the diplomats at the UN would travel to the DR for extended periods of time without a superior's permission.
