As we told you earlier this week, Foreign Minister Wilfred Elrington represented the Prime Minister when he headed the delegation at the 37th Regular Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of CARICOM.
That happened in Georgetown, Guyana, and it concluded yesterday where a CARICOM resolution supported Belize in its ongoing dispute with Guatemala.
A statement from CARICOM says, quote: "The Heads of Government expressed their full support for the Government of Belize as it enters the process of dialogue and welcomed the decisions of the Government of Belize and Guatemala to engage in the design and development of a mechanism of cooperation for the Sarstoon River, which marks Belize's southern boundary. They urged them to complete this at the earliest opportunity. Heads of Government expressed support for the continuous and critical role of the Organization of American States (OAS) in the process... The Heads of Government emphasized their unflinching support for the sovereignty, territorial integrity and security of Belize." End Quote.
