For­eign and Cari­com Af­fairs Min­is­ter Sean Sobers has fired back at Dr Ralph Gon­salves, say­ing his ref­er­ence to sea­sick­ness at the Cari­com Sum­mit in St Kitts and Nevis was said as a joke.

In a stun­ning al­le­ga­tion, for­mer St Vin­cent and the Grenadines prime min­is­ter Dr Ralph Gon­salves claimed Sobers was not “dis­in­vit­ed” from the Nevis re­treat, but in­stead de­clined to go to the Feb­ru­ary 26 event, cit­ing sea­sick­ness.
