Jose Tomas Perez
Former Ambassador of the Dominican Republic to the United States, Embassy of the Dominican Republic
Pérez is a bridge-builder between the Caribbean basin and the institutions of Washington — a diplomat who understands that small nations carry outsized strategic weight when they speak with clarity and conviction. His tenure navigated the complex relationship between the Dominican Republic's domestic priorities and its position within the broader Caribbean and hemispheric architecture.
Narrativa
El Embajador José Tomás Pérez ha pasado una carrera en el cruce de la diplomacia caribeña y la gobernanza hemisférica. Designado por el presidente Danilo Medina como Embajador Extraordinario y Plenipotenciario ante Estados Unidos en diciembre de 2014, representó a la República Dominicana en el centro de las conversaciones bilaterales más consecuentes del corredor caribeño, desde el comercio y la implementación del DR-CAFTA hasta la migración, la vinculación con la diáspora y la cooperación en seguridad.
Pérez understands diplomacy as the art of making small nations heard in large rooms. His tenure as Ambassador reflected a conviction that the Dominican Republic's relationship with the United States is not merely bilateral but hemispheric — a gateway between the Caribbean, Latin America, and North American institutional power.
