REMARKS BY THE PRIME MINISTER OF TRINIDAD & TOBAGO, THE HONOURABLE KAMLA PERSAD-BISSESSAR, SC AT THE RE-ENACTMENT OF THE SIGNING OF THE TREATY OF CHAGUARAMAS THURSDAY 4TH JULY 2013 CHAGUARAMAS

It is with immense pleasure and a deep sense of Caribbean patriotism that I welcome my sisters and brothers of the region to this most historic occasion.

Forty (40) years ago on this day, the founding fathers of the region executed what is perhaps, the most significant accord that would govern the relationship of the nation-states which comprise the Caribbean Community.

There can be no doubt that the historic signing of July 4th 1973, was preceded by long and meticulous study, debate and articulation towards the final product; the Treaty of Chaguaramas.
