CARICOM leaders to address US deportation concerns at Barbados summit

Prime Minister of St. Vincent, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves, says he believes the deportation of CARICOM nationals from the United States will be discussed at the upcoming summit of regional leaders in Barbados.

CARICOM leaders are due to meet in Barbados from February 19-21. United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres will be a special guest.

Prime Minister Gonsalves says his administration has not received any information from the United States regarding plans to deport Vincentian nationals as part of President Donald Trump's clampdown on illegal immigrants.

Dr Gonsalves noted a country's right to deport people and the obligation of the country in which the deportee has citizenship to accept them.
