Two powerful brothers of the,

Sanctions currently in force
are of two types—economic and
diplomatic. Under the eco
nomic sanctions, hemispheric
trade with the Dominican Re
public in arms, petroleum,
trucks and truck parts was
stopped. Under the diplomatic
sanctions, every nation in
the Organization of American
States broke diplomatic rela
tions.
