The United States is exploring the possibility of expanding its diplomatic presence in the Eastern Caribbean by establishing two new embassies.
This development has been a topic of discussions between the US and the countries in the region, particularly Antigua & Barbuda.
The twin-island state has been lobbying for the reinstatement of a US embassy since the closure of the previous one in the 1990s.
Currently, residents of Antigua & Barbuda, along with those from Dominica, Grenada, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia, and St Vincent & The Grenadines, are served by the US embassy in Bridgetown, Barbados, and are required to travel there for visa processing services.
