Ten former Caricom leaders warn of rising Caribbean tensions, urging reduced foreign military presence to protect the region’s peace status.
Ten former Caricom leaders have warned of rising military tensions in the Caribbean, urging a reduction in foreign military presence, including nuclear-powered vessels and airstrikes, to protect the region’s status as a "Zone of Peace."
They emphasized diplomacy, adherence to international law, and regional unity over militarization, expressing concern over U.S. operations that have caused at least 37 deaths and risked destabilizing small island nations.
While supporting lawful cooperation like the Shiprider Agreement, they cautioned against foreign military deployments that could compromise sovereignty or lead to collateral damage.
The call reflects growing regional anxiety over geopolitical rivalries, particularly involving Venezuela and Guyana, and underscores a shared commitment to peace, development, and non-intervention.
