PM urges new US-CARICOM agreement

Teaser
Prime Minister Mia Mottley called for renewed US-Caribbean cooperation, highlighting the urgent need for a targeted development compact between the United States and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), and hinting strongly that a 40-year-old partnership deal is outdated. She told an American foreign policy think tank on Wednesday that the region’s stability is at risk due to a lack of recent US engagement, which has left Caribbean nations exposed and overlooked in favour of other global priorities.
