MINISTER OF FOREIGN Affairs and Foreign Trade Senator Maxine McClean has urged fellow Caribbean countries to continue to rally together in support of Cuba.
Addressing a reception marking the 58th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution at the Grand Salle on Tuesday night, McClean commended the foresight of the leaders of Barbados, Guyana, Trinidad and Jamaica who stood in solidarity with the Cuban people during their days of isolation, following the revolution led by late Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
“This was indeed a bold act of diplomacy and an act of strong commitment to the idea of oneness in the Caribbean,” McClean told the audience which included local friends of Cuba, diplomats, members of the business community, and representatives of organisations connected with the Caribbean country.
“We are now at a watershed moment and must take similarly bold action. . . ” (GC)
