PORT OF SPAIN: 19TH OCTOBER 2025
The Ministry of Foreign and CARICOM Affairs refers to the recent Statement from the Caribbean Community issued on 18th October 2025.
The Government of Trinidad and Tobago wishes to once more, categorially express its strong support for the on-going military intervention of the United States of America in the Region.
These operations aimed at combatting narco and human trafficking and other forms of transnational crime are ultimately aimed at allowing the Region to be a true “Zone of Peace” where all citizens can in reality, live and work in a safe environment.
The Government of Trinidad and Tobago affirms that these operations are not meant to target law abiding persons, specifically fisherfolk and other seafaring individuals seeking to earn an honest living.
Alternatively, all persons who may seek to engage in, or indirectly support, any illegal activities in the Region, are warned that should they be so inclined, they do so at their own peril.
The Government of Trinidad and Tobago reiterates its commitment to the people of the Caribbean for the creation of a safer, stronger and more prosperous Region.
