CMC- Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit on Monday announced that Dominica had entered into an agreement with the United States to facilitate third country refugees to be sent to Dominica to mitigate scenarios where the United States cannot return these individuals to their state of birth or origin.
“In our discussions with the State Department there has been careful deliberation of the need to avoid receiving violent individuals or individuals who will compromise the security of Dominica. This has been acknowledged and well received by the State Department,” Prime Minister Skerrit told a news conference.
He said given the importance of bilateral relationships between the United States and Dominica, he as prime minister and head of government, “believe(s) it is important to find key points of agreement and compromise between our countries.
“This engagement is based on our responsibility to safeguard the wellbeing of our people, particularly their access to lawful travel, education, employment and family connections, while strengthening cooperation between our governments.
“I believe this will further deepen our longstanding relationship and signal clearly that Dominica remains a willing and reliable partner of the United States in the region,” Skerrit said.
Asked to disclose from which countries the migrants would be coming to Dominica, Skerrit said “there are details” which he could not share at this stage.
“But all of the questions you have asked have been considered as part of the discussions and part of the agreement, the MOU between Dominica and the United States,” Skerrit said, noting that Washington “has been very respectful and resaonable and understanding of our concerns.
“I think they have taken our concerns into very serious considerations and those concerns are being reflected in the final document agreed between ourselves. But as time goes by we will know how we operate this agreement,” he added.
Meanwhile, Antigua and Barbuda Prime Minister Gaston Browne has rejected allegations by the main opposition United Progressive Party (UPP) that the country had entered into a secret agreement with the United States to accept large numbers of deportees.
“The UPP elements and propagandists have accused my government of signing a secret agreement, to accept over 100K, criminal deportees from the US. This is a dastardly political spin, mired in lies and disinformation, designed to score cheap political points.
“We agreed to accept, possibly up to ten, non-criminal refugees, who may have skills that are in short demand locally. This is a goodwill agreement in which we will maintain the full discretion, to accept or reject any recommended person.”
Browne said that the US has agreed to assist in providing biometric details and any information of criminal conduct.
He said the US government has invited over 100 countries to assist in reducing the burden on the US, by accepting some of their refugees and or deportees.
“We have agreed to participate, limiting our intake to a maximum of ten individuals with skills and no criminal record,” he said, noting that several countries, including from the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) have signed off on the agreement.
“The UPP as usual, is always opportunistically seeking to promote lies and sensationalism to garner public support,” he added.

What is wrong with these 2 Assholes Roosevelt and Gaston, turning these islands into Dumping Grounds for Trump. He labelled us as SHITHOLE COUNTRIES and both of you are confirming this. The countries that these people come from do not even want them, yet you 2 dupes just drop on your knees for the Orange God or is it the money.
Both Dominica and Antigua and Barbuda must be Siamese Twins and share the same umbilical cord. They are in the same situation and are trying their uttermost best to regain the good graces of the US and be able to keep their Citizenship By Investment Programs and restore the US visas for their citizens. As I said before, our leaders need “balls” and must resist the need to make awful and atrocious decisions just to appease anyone. Our countries might be small and poor but we honour and value our independence and our self determination. In Antiguas case, Papa Bird must be rolling in his grave.
Trump: They want their VISAS and I can make that happen but they gotta first accept my rejects…Oh those guys know not to ever cross the line with the US again so it all worked out great….Ok who’s next?!? No no not you CNN you’re fake news….

Didn’t I told y’all that these two were conspiring?
What y’all think that rushed meeting was about the other day with Caricom, it was to get their story right.
😂.
I told y’all that these two are deep in the Venezuela oil money and corruption..Trump knows it and that’s why these two were singled out an sanctioned.
It’s right in front of you folks. No surprise to me here. Birds of a feather flock together, and that had never been defeated in the history of time.
I will keep speaking until y’all get the full picture, because I know all the pieces to the puzzle..it’s not that difficult.
I know they would like to beheaded me like they beheaded John the Baptist,but that won’t work, the truth will still be revealed.
