Question

What happened in response to the murder of the Mirabal sisters? A Trujillo fled the Dominican Republic because he A saw how many people were against him. B Trujillo's power grew since he eliminated his most important enemies. C Foreign countries turned their backs on Trujillo and he was assassinated by his enemies. D Trujillo sought asylum at the United States embassy, but his request was denied.

Answer 1

The correct answer is C. Foreign countries turned their backs on Trujillo and he was assassinated by his enemies.The murder of the Mirabal sisters, who were political activists and opponents of the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo in the Dominican Republic, led to a significant international outcry and condemnation of Trujillo's regime. This event, known as the "Parachute Murder" due to the method used to kill the sisters, further galvanized opposition to Trujillo's government both domestically and internationally.In response to the murder, several foreign countries, including the United States, imposed economic sanctions and diplomatic pressure on the Dominican Republic. This international isolation weakened Trujillo's position and contributed to the growing domestic opposition to his rule. Ultimately, Trujillo was assassinated in 1961 by a group of Dominican rebels, marking the end of his dictatorship.
