The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) exemplifies the spirit of togetherness that is the hallmark of family and community.
This pronouncement was made by the Chairman of the CARICOM, Allen Chastanet who is also the Prime Minister of Saint Lucia as part of his end-of-year statement to the Community.
Chastanet spoke of celebrating with the people of St Vincent and the Grenadines as they recorded an overwhelming vote at the United Nations to sit on the Security Council in the coming year. It engendered, he said, “great pride in both the country and CARICOM, demonstrating that there is still space at the highest global forum for us as small states.”
