\u201cToday, the freedom of expression is not being discussed, but rather the obligation to construct a narrative based on truth. Our duty is to confront lies with verifiable facts,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe official warned that 62% of the information circulating on digital platforms is false, which daily affects more than 10 million Dominicans.

\"Every time an adversary tells a lie, we are going to respond with five works.
