Antigua and Barbuda today reiterated its support for a just, lasting, and comprehensive peace in the Middle East at the High-level International Conference on the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and Implementation of the Two-State Solution, convened at the United Nations.

Prime Minister the Honourable Gaston Browne welcomed the convening of the conference and underscored its value in reinvigorating international momentum toward a two-state solution.

“The people of Palestine have waited far too long for the dignity, peace, and security that self-determination affords.

Antigua and Barbuda stands in solidarity with the Palestinian people and joins the international community in calling for urgent, good-faith negotiations to realize two states, living side by side in peace,” Prime Minister Browne said.

The Prime Minister urged all parties to act with courage, restraint, and a spirit of compromise, noting that peace remains the only viable path forward.

Antigua and Barbuda pledged continued support for multilateral efforts aimed at a negotiated settlement that upholds international law and ensures the rights and security of both Palestinians and Israelis.

  1. You see when loud mouth gets Infront of white power them become ambiguous? Gaston can’t say clearly Palestine having a genocide committed against it because he is afraid his visa is revoked and he has property’s in the USA, Ron saunders done give Gaston the operative friendly media language of the CNN and Fox News in the USA to use there on that platform to tip toe around ethno supremacists ideology of the white nations that sees Palestinians as monkeys and animals as they called us as black slave to this day. A only in a Antigua on Gaston radio station he have chat, he is judge jury and executioner on his radio station roaring like a lion, but on the international platform microphone we hearing a cat meowing.
    When we elect leaders we should elect people that don’t have any conflict of interest as far as having business or property in foreign countries that will compromise the wishes or ideology of the people who sent them to these forums.

  2. Antigua and Barbuda may be a small state, but this is a reminder that every nation has a role to play in pushing for peace.

  3. Small nations like Antigua and Barbuda may not have military might, but their moral voice at the UN matters. Browne is right, the world can’t keep ignoring Palestine’s cry for justice.

  4. Hopefully A&B will convince Hamas to put down their arms and agree to change their stated goal of destroying Israel and killing all Israelis and will compromise and accept a two state solution.

  5. I did not hear the speech.

    Was anything said about what took place on Saturday 7th October 2023?

    Was anything said of the ‘genocide’ that took place on that day?

    Was it said that what is being ‘reaped’ today was brought about as a result of what took place on that day?

    I am just wondering.

  6. Yes we call for peace and keep it moving. To these people were a 10th world country. We don’t need to get involved or pick sides

  9. While Antigua and Barbuda’s call for peace is commendable, the reality is that Israel has always been willing to negotiate, but its security must come first. No country can be expected to compromise on the safety of its citizens.

  10. @Audley Dave Joseph (a.k.a. Beef)
    Have you research what the word genocide means before you use it. In the context of what happened on October 7th, 2023 doesn’t qualified to be called a genocide. You may call it a massacre. (an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of many people). But you claim to be Christian should know that an eye for an eye is not he teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. Cause is we do the same thing we accuse others of doing, what does that make us. Vengence is mine said the Lord. Everyday the world is watching a one sided killing of an entire nation. That is not war. That is murder. Genocide by all means. And sad to say, the so-called Christians are mute because of some biblical code. Touch not the Lords Annoited or. “whoever curse Israel” refers to a biblical promise, found in Genesis 12:3 and Numbers 24:9, stating that God will curse those who attempt to curse Israel, while blessing those who bless them.
    But I tell you follow the teachings of our Lord Jesus. The same Jesus that was crusified by the Jews. They thought he came to free them from the Romans but the misunderstood his purpose of coming. He is not just a Jewish God. He is Lord of ALL. That is why politics and religion doesn’t go hand in hand. You cannot serve two masters. The Israel of today is the political Israel. They even denie any black Jew. And we know the bible teaches us of many Black Jews.
    Yes, Zephaniah was likely a black prophet, as his father is described as a “Cushi” (Zephaniah 1:1), a Hebrew term referring to a person of African descent or Ethiopian origin. While Zephaniah was also a Judean with a royal lineage tracing back to King Hezekiah, the inclusion of his father’s name indicates a mixed racial background, possibly highlighting God’s love for all peoples and a commitment to a multiethnic community of worshippers.
    Anyone standing with the Israel of today is standing with the politics of those of evil minds and not with any biblical relation. Stick to the teaching of Jesus. Love those that hate you. Show love. For God is Love. And you know we the black people, have the Love of God in us. Having lived over 300 years under slavery, we never have hate in our hearts. We never looked for vengence. Many of us didn’t even fought for our freedom. We just worked on the heart of men.

  11. Solidarity should be balanced supporting Palestinians’ aspirations is fine, but the world must also respect Israel’s struggle for survival in a very hostile neighborhood.

  12. I support Antigua’s push for dialogue, but let’s be clear: Israel is the only democracy in the region, and it has the right to defend itself. Peace will only come when Palestinians recognize Israel’s right to exist

  13. Two states sound good in theory, but only if the Palestinian side can guarantee that Israel won’t face constant threats. Until then, Israel must remain strong and secure

  14. So what I hear is if you and your neighbour do not see eye to eye it is justify to kill your neighbour before he kills you. Do the Palestinians have a military equal or even close to that of Israel? Note that the IDF is the most sophisticated army. How many of you know how Palestinians are treated as third class citizens. No right to even have a passport. They really do not even have a country. Only now the rest of the world is seeing the need of recognizing them as a state. But they did give Israel a State Hood and left the Palestians in cold holding an empty bag. Why should only one people be given a State Hood, but the other people that were living there for centuries are left out to dry. People please understand the world messed up. Israel is as guilty as the White South Africans were during the Apartheid regime.

  15. It’s disappointing to hear leaders still blaming Israel when the real obstacle to peace has always been Palestinian leadership refusing to recognize Israel’s right to exist

  16. To All Antiguan.. Since when you guys love a lot Arabs and are literate about Middle East people, culture, behavior, way of thinking, etc?
    You are right now brainwashed about this conflict between Israel and Gaza.
    Don’t be hypocrites about “Genocide” “Genocide”. If you wanna talk about Gencides, why you don’t advocate about all Genocides that are taking part today in lot of places in Africa, the Mother Land, why you don’t pull up those flags and protest against those African countries that suffer for decades?
    Why you guys don’t fight for those Christians that are being persecuted and murdered every single day in Africa?
    Y’all refuse to debate about it, silent, no news, no protest, no global campaign, nothing. Is laughable how Black comunity are worry a lot but a lot about Gaza population (Arabs) and made 0 claim about Black population in Africa. Hypocrites.
    You talk because Israel is Rich and USA is supporting Israel. But in Africa are poor countries and nobody care about poor people killing other poor people. For the last 10 years Saudi Arabia and other countries intervene in Yemen and thousands and thousand of people died and suffer for starvation. Ahh none of you pull a flag about it. Because isnt Israel or USA involved then, but when Israel launched some attack against Iran-backed Yemeni Houthi forces.. Wow ..lot of noise then. Don’t be hypocrites and stop pretending you understand those Middle East conflicts better than them. Keep your nose in our internal issues that are our problem and we are not doing anything to change them.
