José Domingo Arias
José Domingo Arias is a Panamanian politician who served as the Minister of Housing and Territorial Planning and was the presidential candidate for the Cambio Democrático party in the 2014 elections. He was notably supported by former President Ricardo Martinelli and was a key figure in the political landscape during a period of significant tension between various factions within Panamanian politics. Despite his efforts, Arias lost the election to Juan Carlos Varela, a rival from the Panameñista party, which has shaped the dynamics of their political interactions since.
