T&T to open embassy in China

Apr 15, 2013

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - Within a month T&T will open its embassy in Bejing, China, more than 30 years after China established its embassy here in T&T. On June 20, 1974 China established diplomatic relations with T&T and in April of 1975 the embassy was established. Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Dookeran sees no issue in the delay in reciprocating. “It is all a matter of timing,” he said.
However, opposition member and foreign affairs minister under the PNM government Paula Gopee-Scoon claims the groundwork for the embassy was completed during her time in office. From his Tower C, Hyatt office, Minister Dookeran welcomed enquiries about the project. “There is no question that China is emerging as a leading economic power in the world, expecting to rival even the United States. It is also a leading nation of the BRICS,” which he said is viewed as the “new political fraction”.
