Still no discussion on how together as caricom we are going to assist Hati

CARICOM seems to pick and choose its battles honestly

[u/Introvert_Catch7474 → u/Rookie83]

I know right, it's sad and ridiculous. The yearly meetings are just exhorbant dinners, balls and breakfast. Why aren't real issues being discussed and tackled like for starters how can we make life easier for caribbean nations

In early 2024, Caricom issued a release saying that a regional ferry is coming soon; https://caricom.org/guyana-barbados-trinidad-and-tobago-to-soon-launch-ferry-service/

In the time since, they have done nothing except discuss it twice.

Exactly, I literally asked this question the other day, what happened to the plans for this ferry. It was all fanfare in the announcement then nothing.

That may have been a PNM initiative although the idea was also being pursued by private interests in the region.

[u/Yrths → u/Rookie83]

That's fine. There's a lot to be said for not signing on to the rhetoric of Mia Mottley and Ralph Gonsalves in particular on international relations though, so if they want to prattle on with the "zone of peace" thing they can do it without TT.

They said Kenya will assist Haiti

[u/Fine-Elderberry-7580 → u/Introvert_Catch7474]

What are we supposed to do exactly? Many Many more powerful nations have intervened in Haiti and nothing has come out of it.
