Charles Angelo Savarin
Dominican politician Charles Angelo Savarin, who was born on October 2, 1943, has served as the country's president since that year. He was once the Minister of National Security, Immigration, Labor, and the Public Service. He is also a member of the Dominica Labour Party.
Savarin was named Chairman of the Committee for National Salvation following the overthrow of Patrick John's administration, in which he played a crucial part (CNS). This group, which was made up of representatives from the Dominican Association's main division, was in charge of coordinating the transfer to the interim administration. With a focus on trade, industry, and tourism, Savarin was named Minister without Category in the Prime Minister's Office in 1983. Savarin was chosen to serve as the Permanent Representative to the European Union in 1986. He also worked as the principal diplomatic spokesperson for nations in the Pacific, the Caribbean, and Africa about bananas. When he returned to Dominica in 1993 to take the general manager position at the National Development Corporation (NDC), that mission came to an end.
Savarin promoted "equal educational opportunity" for kids in the Roseau Basin during her first term as the Central MP for Roseau. In the general election of 2000, he was narrowly re-elected as the MP for Roseau. Savarin formed a partnership with the Rosie Douglas-led Dominican Labor Party. He was made the tourism minister. Eight months after Douglas passed away, Pierre Charles was named prime minister, expanding Savarin's portfolio to include Corporate Development and Public Service.
Savarin continued to serve as tourism secretary when Pierre Charles passed away on January 6, 2004, and Roosevelt Skerrit was named prime minister. In the May 2005 General Election, the Liberal Party lost ground and continued to deteriorate. Savarin, however, was honored for his fidelity to the union and made Minister of Foreign Affairs, Trade, and Labor as compensation. Savarin was named Minister of Public Utilities, Ports, and Public Services at the 2008 Cabinet reorganization. He joined the Labor Party and played a crucial role in the public relations effort leading up to the 2009 General Election. Savarin is renowned for his outstanding oratory abilities and for being a significant role in the DLP's political history.
