AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Code Noir Repeal: France’s National Assembly voted unanimously (254-0) to repeal the 1685 “Black Code,” a slavery-era law that treated enslaved people as property—an overdue legal step that many in Martinique and across the Caribbean see as symbolic, with reparations still unresolved. Aviation Connectivity: LIAT (2020) and Air Caraïbes signed an interline deal starting June 1, letting travellers book on one ticket with through-checked baggage—linking Martinique and Guadeloupe to Antigua and onward to Europe via Paris-Orly. Drug Interdiction: A French Navy operation in the Caribbean seized 737kg of cocaine from a speedboat, with two suspects detained and the case handed to Colombian authorities. Regional Justice Training: OHADAC and the CARO arbitration centre will launch training programmes in arbitration and ADR across the Eastern Caribbean on June 10, including Martinique. Sports Spotlight: Saint Lucia’s 18-year-old cyclist Denver Alphonse Jr impressed at a Martinique Grand Prix, earning praise as a rising talent. Disaster Readiness: France’s Antilles forces continue “Operation Caribbean 26” disaster-response drills through June 4, with Martinique’s RSMA units involved.
