The governments of Dominica and Panama signed an agreement in Washington today to establish formal diplomatic relations between the two countries.
Dominica and Panama’s Permanent Representatives to the Organization of American States, Hubert Charles and Guillermo Cochez, respectively, signed the agreement.
“For a strange and not clear reason, our countries had not until now established diplomatic relations,” Cochez said following the signing. “I say strange because Panama and Dominica are sister nations. From the very start of Panama’s foundation, we shared with all the Caribbean nations, and in this case, Dominica, unique bonds that have shaped our relations, our culture, and so many aspects of our people.”
spinning top in laboo….expensively
DNO, what is the economic value or importance to Dominica in these realtionships, what have we gotten from Panama in the last twenty years, does thios really make sense? or is it a way to make us believe that this so called ambassador is doing something for, hardly even hear of this guy had it not been for the news cilpping on DNO
Could it perhaps have anything to do with Banco Transatlantico of Panama, in which the owner of Banco Transatlantico Dominica (previously known as Griffin Bank) had a large share?
Can you tell us?
Dat can move!
long overdue but strategic move,PANAMA IS IDEALLY LOCATED AS A CENTRAL POINT OF AIR ACCESS TO MANY COUNTRIES AND HAS A VIBRANT ECONOMY, SO HATS OFF TO DOMINICA
DOMINICA IS IDEALLY LOCATED AS A CENTRAL POINT AND HAS TREMENDOUS POTENTIAL FOR AIR ACCESS TO MANY COUNTRIES, but ALAS WE DO NOT HAVE AN AIRPORT CAPABLE OF TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THIS POTENTIAL.
GOOD MOVE.
“For a strange and not clear reason, our countries had not until now established diplomatic relations,” Cochez said following the signing. “I say strange because Panama and Dominica are sister nations.

Well said Mr. Cochez!!!
