Barbados is set to hold a high level meeting with a United States delegation on Friday, the Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley has revealed.
Speaking at a news conference today, Rowley said the meeting will involve “some decision makers, high ranking members of the United States government, which is currently in transition.
‘We have a number of issues on the table, not the least in which is something called the Bridgetown Initiative. We have been fighting with the Bretton institutions to treat us more fairly in these difficult times and also to get terms and conditions…for our countries,” he said.
“Therefore we will meet in Barbados from Friday afternoon,” he said adding “we cannot but be engaged in these issues. They have far reaching consequences,” he added.
Rowley did not name the other regional leaders expected at the meeting with the US officials or whether these officials are from the outgoing Biden administration or the incoming team from the President-elect Donald Trump. (BT/CMC)
