The People’s National Movement (PNM) has accused Foreign Affairs Minister Sean Sobers of “gross insobriety” over his comments on the impending arrival of US naval assets in the southern Caribbean and his response to remarks by US Vice President JD Vance, who compared crime in Washington DC to T&T.
The Opposition said Sobers’ statements revealed the Government’s unpreparedness to handle sensitive security and diplomatic issues, downplaying both the implications of the US deployment and concerns raised by the Vice President.
PNM chairman Marvin Gonzales said the party will issue a formal response today, but criticised Sobers’ handling of the matter.
