WASHINGTON, USA — On Tuesday, eight Caribbean members of the Organization of American States (OAS): Antigua-Barbuda, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, St Kitts-Nevis, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, and Trinidad-Tobago, joined two days later by Grenada, delivered a formal Note to the chair of the Permanent Council of the OAS in relation to actions that were said to be ultra vires the rules and procedures of the OAS Permanent Council, the OAS Charter and international law.
The Note reads in part as follows:
The Permanent Mission of Antigua and Barbuda to the Organisation of American States (OAS), on behalf of the Permanent Mission of Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, St Kitts-Nevis, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname and Trinidad and Tobago, presents its compliments to the Honourable chair of the Permanent Council (PC) on April 9, 2019 by which it was resolved: “To accept the appointment of Mr Gustavo Tarre as the National Assembly’s designated Permanent Representative, pending new elections and the appointment of a democratically elected government.”
The Permanent Missions… endorse the positions… of the Permanent Mission of Mexico. In this regard, the Permanent Missions do not repeat herein the inconsistencies with international law and the norms of the Organisation inherent in the resolution on the situation in Venezuela… which were set out by the Permanent Mission of Mexico, except to assert their agreement with them.
Further, the Permanent Missions note that, on April 10, 2019, the secretary general accepted the credentials of Mr Gustavo Tarre Briceno, as the “designated Permanent Representative” of the National Assembly of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
