Assistant Secretary-General (Ag.) of Caricom, Dr Wendell Samuel, has called for action to address the impact of the Middle East conflict on the Caribbean.
Dr Samuel made the statement during a virtual dialogue on April 10 hosted by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations. The discussion examined effects on Latin America and the Caribbean, with focus on food security, agriculture and macroeconomic stability.
Dr Samuel said CARICOM has developed a draft response matrix to address fallout from the conflict. He said the matrix will be presented to regional Ministers of Agriculture for consideration, adoption and implementation.
