Antigua and Barbuda diplomat and Senior Fellow at the Institute of Commonwealth Studies at London University, Sir Ronald Sanders, has called on the Commonwealth Secretariat, the European Union Commission and international financial institutions to respond swiftly to the urgent needs of Dominica, which suffered loss of life and considerable damage during the passage of Tropical Storm Erika.
Sanders is the newly appointed Antigua and Barbuda ambassador to the Organisation of American States (OAS) and the country’s nominee for the position of Commonwealth secretary general.
He has written to Dominica’s ambassador in the United States, Hubert Charles, expressing his sympathy and deep concern and offering to join diplomatic efforts to mobilise support from the OAS and international financial institutions in Washington.
Sanders, who was a member and rapporteur of the Commonwealth Eminent Persons Group (EPG) that proposed reforms for the Commonwealth, reminded that recommendations had been made for a rapid response to disasters in Commonwealth countries.
I must say I like this gentleman’s approach. He is the the right person to represent us at the Commonwealth and not an opportunist.
