On July 8, as part of the 49th Regular Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), Andrew Holness, Prime Minister of Jamaica and Chairman of CARICOM, during the organization's Business Forum Breakfast at Sandals Montego Bay in St. James's, stated that the current crisis in Haiti must remain a central concern for the region. "We must remain laser-focused on the worsening humanitarian and security crisis in Haiti. This is not only a national emergency, it is a regional priority,."
He emphasized the link between Haiti's future and the success of the entire Caribbean, stating, "a secure Haiti is essential to a secure Caribbean," and also highlighted Haiti's economic potential if stability is restored. "Haiti is a tremendous opportunity waiting to be discovered. It is an incredible market of people with incredible talent and resources."
Prime Minister Holness reaffirmed his personal commitment and CARICOM's collective determination to advocate and assist in resolving the crisis in Haiti.
"If we could assist our brothers and sisters in Haiti to settle the issues, strengthen the State, the region as a whole would benefit economically from Haiti, the resolution of the situation. I am going to dedicate great effort, as did Prime Minister of Barbados, [Hon.] Mia Mottley, to ensure that the situation in Haiti is again brought to the fore of global attention. I believe that we can have a positive impact on resolving the situation in Haiti."
