ST LUCIAN DELEGATION PROCEEDS TO SUMMIT DESPITE CALL FOR REGIONAL BOYCOTT

Saint Lucia will be well represented at the commencement of the 2022 Summit of the Americas despite calls by one regional counterpart for fellow CARICOM nations to boycott the event. The gathering of world leaders has been dogged by controversy over the decision to withhold invitation to three nations within the Americas, Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela. International discussion on the impact of the decision has been held, however according to one seasoned diplomat, Saint Lucia’s participation may pose no challenge to its diplomatic relations.
