PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar is reaffirming her stance towards the US deployment of troops to the southern Caribbean region, and dismissed suggestions that TT is part of any military alliance with the US against Venezuela.

She made the comments while speaking with the media at the Diplomatic Centre on August 29, after bilateral discussions with Grenada’s prime minister Dickon Mitchell.

Persad-Bissessar recently voiced her support for the US decision to deploy troops, including a nuclear submarine, to the Southern Caribbean region in its fight against drug cartels.
