Emphasizing the Trump administration’s focus on prioritizing previously “ignored” Western Hemisphere neighbors and “reinvigorating relationships”, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who addressed Caribbean leaders in St. Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday, outlined several key areas of focus with regional partners, including security, economic advancement, and regional stability.
“We view our security, our prosperity, our stability to be intricately tied to yours and we are going to evidence in the actions we’re prepared to take and in the priority that we want to give this our intent to follow through on it, which is why I’m here today, which is why I wanted to come here today and interact with all of you collectively and a few of you individually in the time that’s permitted to me,” Rubio stated.
