We also repeated our opposition to the economic and financial embargo imposed on the Republic of Cuba. \u201c<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Skerrit went on to add that a major focus of their discussions was the need for reform of the international system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe agreed that the United Nations must become more representative, inclusive, and democratic, reflecting the realities of today&#8217;s world. CELAC countries proposed that the next UN Secretary\u00a0 General should come from our region, and this received strong attention,\u201d he asserted. \u201cWe also supported reforms to the global financial architecture \u00a0to make it more just and responsive to the needs of developing nations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Prime Minister stressed that small island developing states like Dominica need greater access to concessional financing and debt relief based on the country\u2019s vulnerabilities and exposure to climate and economic shocks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe reaffirmed our commitment to a fair, rule-based multilateral trading system under the WTO [World Trade Organization] and welcomed the strengthening of trade and investment ties between Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skerrit further explained that a key outcome for the region was the emphasis on climate resilience and the energy transition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe renewed our collective commitment to the goals of the Paris Agreement. I took the opportunity to highlight Dominica&#8217;s leadership in building a climate-resilient nation and advancing a clean energy agenda through geothermal development,\u201d he revealed. \u201cWe also discussed regional cooperation to address environmental challenges such as the sargassum, turning them into opportunities for innovation, job creation,\u00a0 and sustainable growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He added, \u201c In all, this meeting was a reaffirmation of our solidarity between Latin America, the Caribbean, and
