PRIME MINISTER of St Vincent and the Grenadines Dr Ralph Gonsalves has questioned Caricom’s ability to co-ordinate its foreign policy, saying the bloc cannot even agree on what constitutes a "zone of peace".

Speaking at the University of the West Indies (UWI) Vice Chancellor’s Forum on October 21, Gonsalves criticised Trinidad and Tobago’s position on Caribbean and Latin America as a zone of peace, calling it a “misguided notion” that requires urgent rethinking.

The hybrid forum, titled Promises, Passports and Possibilities: Free Movement, the CSME and the Caribbean Regionalisation Project, was streamed live on UWI TV and attended both in person and online.
