PM BROWNE INVITED TO SUMMIT OF 40 WORLD LEADERS

Prime Minister Hon. Gaston Browne says he welcomes the invitation to participate in a summit of 40 world leaders next month.

Prime Minister Browne is one of only two Caribbean leaders invited by US President Joe Biden to the Summit; Jamaica’s Prime Minister Andrew Holness is the other Caribbean invitee.

The Summit will be held on April 22 and 23 with President Biden as host.

In issuing the invitation, President Biden said he was inviting the leaders of the world’s major economies as well as “heads of other countries that are demonstrating strong climate leadership and are especially vulnerable to climate impacts.”

Prime Minister Browne says he intends to make “a robust contribution on behalf of all CARICOM countries.”
