The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretary-General Dr. Carla Barnett on Thursday, 12 February received the Letter of Credence of His Excellency Martin Gallagher, accrediting him as Ambassador of Ireland to CARICOM during a virtual ceremony.
Dr. Barnett said that the appointment reflects the shared commitment and values that both CARICOM and Ireland placed on their partnership, which continues to thrive through high-level political engagements and within the frameworks of CARICOM-European Union (EU) relations and in the United Nations (UN).
She acknowledged Ireland’s ongoing commitment to the restoration of security in Haiti, stating,
“As the UN’s Gang Suppression Force (GSF) works alongside the Haitian National Police to neutralise the threats that have long hindered the democratic process in Haiti, Ireland’s role as a partner in peacebuilding remains vital. We thank Ireland for supporting this mission, which is so important for Haiti and, by extension, for our Region as a whole.”
