BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – Several Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders have voiced their opposition to the March 22 meeting with US President Donald Trump and four of their colleague heads of government at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida.
Among those fuming over the four CARICOM leaders that discussed the intensifying political calamity in Venezuela is Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves of St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Attending the meeting with Trumps were Prime Minister Allen Chastanet of Saint Lucia, Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis of The Bahamas, Prime Minister Andrew Holness of Jamaica and President Jovenel Moise of Haiti, all CARICOM member states, along with President Danilo Medina of the Dominican Republic.
Over the weekend, Gonsalves was in Barbados for a LIAT shareholders’ meeting, and spoke to media concerning the Mar-a-Lago meeting, which he described as “troubling.”
Gonsalves added that the meeting was not in line with the agreed mechanisms recognised by CARICOM.
