Haiti hosts historic CARICOM summit
GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders meet in Haiti next week for their annual Inter-sessional summit where they will discuss a wide range of issues including crime and security, the CARICOM Regional Aid for Trade Strategy, and a report on the Regional Architecture for Financial Stability. A CARICOM Secretariat statement said that the “historic” meeting will be addressed by the host head of state, President Michel Martelly, St. Lucia’s Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony and the CARICOM Secretary General Irwin LaRocque. The two-day meeting will be the first ever held by CARICOM leaders in the French-speaking country, now recovering from a powerful earthquake in 2010 that killed an estimated 300,000 people and left more than a million others homeless.
