Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit expressed that the recent decision by the United States(U.S) Government to include Dominica on its latest list of countries facing U.S partial travel restrictions will not negatively impact the overall smooth relationship between Dominica and the U.S under the current administration.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have had, I would say, more communication with the Trump administration than we had with the Biden administration,\u00a0 [regarding] the extent of the contacts and engagement on a regular basis on a number of issues that we’re working on,\u201d he said during a live interview on State-Owned Radio DBS on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
According to Skerrit, Dominica has seen an increase in spending by the United States on the country’s national security, providing additional support.<\/p>\n
“So even when U.S. Aid came to an end, \u00a0we continued to get support fully,” he noted.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, he added that Dominica has received important infrastructural, training, and material support from the United States Government.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo the relationship in my mind between Dominica and the current\u00a0Trump administration\u00a0has been very\u00a0good,\u201d Skerrit stated.<\/p>\n
He went on to state that access to the U.S. State Department, the Treasury and the U.S Embassy have been very effective at all levels.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd so I don’t see it as affecting the relationship in any way,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit expressed that the recent decision by the United States(U.S) Government to include Dominica on its latest list of countries facing U.S partial travel restrictions will not negatively impact the overall smooth relationship between Dominica and the…","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":354086,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[235,313,76,305,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-354084","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-homepage-carousel","category-immigration","category-international-relations","category-migration","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
