PM makes case for reparations and SIDS at UN Assembly
Sep 26, 2013
NEW YORK- A request to have nations that engaged in the Trans-Atlantic Slave begin paying reparations was again issued by Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer during his address to the 68th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
Speaking on Wednesday Spencer made the case for Caribbean and other former disadvantaged colonies.
“We have recently seen a number of leaders apologising to the African Diaspora, to indigenous peoples, and to former colonies for past wrongs and injustices. I salute those leaders … and strongly encourage others to do so and equally match their words with concrete and material benefits,” Spencer said.
