Caribbean leaders urge UK to support 'Marshall Plan' for Hurricane Beryl recovery

Some Caribbean countries are awaiting a response from the United Kingdom government to their request that London back a "Marshall plan" to rebuild their devastated countries following the passage of Hurricane Beryl.

The plan would call for cheaper loans, debt restructuring options, improved access to grants for climate-related damage, and a large-scale programme to build green and resilient infrastructure and stronger economies.

The letter was signed by the leaders of Antigua and Barbuda, Grenada, and St Vincent & the Grenadines.
