AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

CARICOM Milestone for Martinique: Martinique officially took its seat as CARICOM’s seventh Associate Member during the 51st Heads of Government meeting in Saint Lucia, with the accession agreement signed in February 2025 and the legal steps completed after the instrument of accession entered into force on June 16, 2026. CARICOM Secretary-General Carla Barnett welcomed Martinique, and Executive Council President Serge Letchimy called it “only the beginning,” urging businesses, financing and investment to move into action. Regional Integration Push: Barnett used the opening to press leaders to deepen integration and speed up CSME implementation, stressing wider public participation and youth involvement so citizens feel the benefits. CARICOM Politics in the Spotlight: A report says logistical issues delayed Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s arrival, affecting her appearance at the opening stage lineup. Local Culture Spotlight: A profile remembers Sterling Betancourt, who helped bring steelpan music to the UK in 1951, and notes his music is set to return to London’s Royal Festival Hall later this month. Martinique in the News Beyond CARICOM: A cruise industry update highlights Martinique as a key port call in upcoming Caribbean itineraries, including P&O’s Iona home-port departure route that stops in Fort-de-France on November 19, 2027.
