DA­REECE PO­LO

Grena­da’s Prime Min­is­ter Dick­on Mitchell says a pro­posed Unit­ed States radar in­stal­la­tion on the is­land is no longer un­der con­sid­er­a­tion, months af­ter a sim­i­lar sys­tem was in­stalled in neigh­bour­ing To­ba­go.

In ear­ly No­vem­ber, Mitchell's gov­ern­ment was asked to ac­com­mo­date the radar at Mau­rice Bish­op In­ter­na­tion­al Air­port, the US-built air­port that be­came cen­tral to Wash­ing­ton’s 1983 in­va­sion of the is­land.
