Belizean Prime Minister Said Musa has voiced his support for the DR's aspirations to non-permanent membership of the United Nation's Security Council. Musa, who is on an official visit to the DR, signed an agreement with Foreign Relations Minister Carlos Morales Troncoso yesterday for the creation of a bi-national commission that will establish economic and technical cooperation between the two countries. He also met with Santo Domingo Mayor Roberto Salcedo who handed him the keys to the city and declared him a distinguished visitor.
Musa said that the DR and Belize have a lot of shared interests in the area of economics and the fight against poverty. Both countries participate in the Caribbean Community (Caricom), Cariforum and Central American Integrated System (SICA).
Coincidentally, both Belize and the DR share the mahogany as national tree.
