Enhancing regional security important
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - Enhancing security within the region is one of the major issues that came under discussion recently when Mark Simmonds, Minister for Africa, the Overseas Territories, the Caribbean and International Energy, met with Prime Minister, Freundel Stuart and other Minister of Government including Minister of Foreign Affairs, Senator Maxine McClean; Attorney General, Adriel Brathwaite and Minister of Energy, Senator Darcy Boyce. Speaking with the media recently at the British High Commissioner’s Residence, Simmonds said that given the recent events that have unfolded across the globe such as what occurred at the Boston Marathon, security has never been more important than it is now and there is lot that the international community can do to help support Barbados and the rest of the Eastern Caribbean in this regard. This security aspect would therefore involve “facilitating, enabling and encouraging international and regional cooperation on the important security agenda”.
