Prime Minister Gaston Browne has extended congratulations to two newly-elected heads of government — Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar of Trinidad and Tobago, and Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada — following their recent electoral victories.
In separate letters, the Prime Minister praised both leaders for their successful campaigns and expressed his hope for deepened bilateral cooperation in the years ahead.
Writing to Prime Minister Persad-Bissessar, PM Browne acknowledged her return to leadership as a moment of historic significance and reaffirmed the strong bonds of friendship and regional solidarity shared between the two nations.
“Your leadership has once again been entrusted with the responsibility of guiding the people of Trinidad and Tobago, and I am confident that your government will work diligently to meet the aspirations of your citizens,” the PM wrote.
In his letter to Prime Minister Carney, the Antiguan leader congratulated the incoming Canadian Prime Minister on a decisive mandate and underscored the long-standing friendship between Canada and Antigua and Barbuda.
“I look forward to working with your administration in strengthening the longstanding partnership between our nations,” Browne wrote, adding that he is eager to deepen cooperation on issues such as climate change, trade, and global security.
Both letters emphasized Antigua and Barbuda’s commitment to fostering positive diplomatic and economic relations, while promoting multilateralism and mutual respect on the international stage.
