Luis Abinader: Legitimacy once granted never returns

Dominican Republic President Luis Abinader made a statement under the headline "Legitimidad entregada nunca vuelve atrás" (Legitimacy surrendered never goes back). According to the coverage, Abinader rose to power promising a break from the past at a time when the previous political order was exhausted.

The reports indicate that public trust was deteriorating and a growing segment of society felt unrepresented by older political structures. Recognizing this political climate, Abinader positioned himself as a modern, reformist alternative open to new voices.
