ST. KITTS-POLITICS-Opposition concerned over silence by regional leaders to political situation
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Aug 1, CMC – Opposition legislators say they are concerned at the continued silence of Caribbean leaders to the ongoing political situation in St. Kitts-Nevis and are warning of possible violence in the future.
Leader of the main opposition People’s Action Movement (PAM), Shawn Richards, told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC) that to date, none of the regional leaders had responded to their pleas to intervene in the current political stalemate, warning that neither the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) nor the sub-regional Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) can afford to turn a blind eye to the situation.
“It is unfortunate that one doesn’t hear any sort of urgings coming from these particular leaders throughout the region saying to the Prime Minister that what he is going is setting a bad example for democracy not only in St. Kitts-Nevis but throughout the rest of the region.
