Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley is urging the Caribbean countries to fight their common problems together rather than battle adversity on their own.

Mottley said the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) also needed to unite and fix several other matters, including their blacklisting by international bodies, inadequate investment policies, and the CARICOM Single Market and Economy’s (CSME) shortcomings.

The Prime Minister was speaking yesterday at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre during the official opening of the Sixth Special Meeting of CARICOM’s Council For Finance and Planning (COFAP).
