Antigua and Barbuda Prepares Unified Delegation for COP in Brazil

PM Browne invites Opposition Leader to join COP delegation in show of climate solidarity

Prime Minister Gaston Browne has invited Opposition Leader Jamale Pringle to join Antigua and Barbuda’s delegation to the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP) in Belém, Brazil, signaling a rare display of national unity on one of the country’s most pressing global issues.

Director-General of Communications Maurice Merchant confirmed that Browne has written to Pringle, extending a formal invitation for him to participate in the international summit, where small island developing states (SIDS) will renew their call for climate finance and loss-and-damage compensation.

Merchant said the Prime Minister viewed Pringle’s participation as an opportunity to expose the Opposition Leader to the scale of the global climate debate while demonstrating that Antigua and Barbuda stands united in its advocacy for environmental justice.

“The Prime Minister believes that having both sides represented will send a signal that Antigua and Barbuda speaks with one voice on climate change,” Merchant said.

He noted that the government remains committed to pressing large emitters and developed nations—especially the United States—to take responsibility for their carbon emissions and to increase funding support for SIDS.

The invitation comes as Antigua and Barbuda prepares to highlight the devastation left by Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica as an example of the growing threat posed by climate change to Caribbean economies and livelihoods .

Merchant added that Prime Minister Browne will personally attend some of the meetings in Belém and expressed confidence that the Opposition Leader would accept the invitation, given the significance of the issue for the nation and the region.

  2. @fungee.

    Please tell that to GB please..and I hope he listens, because that man doesn’t listen to any critical thinkers. He is hell bent on peddling this hoax about “global warming” because there is big money in it for with all the begging he loves to do. He sees it as a easy way to get over on the fools who are willing to donate to his cause.

    And just watch the amount of begging that proceeds Melissa.. This man is just a two bit swindler, and anywhere easy money is to be had, he’s front and center. There is a corrupted version of this man that many ignores, and that’s why he made himself Finance Minister.

    That is no random fluke.

    The earth has been recycling itself for thousands of years by the design of the Creator God himself, but wicked men will use “fear mongering” to suppress the light of people.

    Jesus Christ was the only man that ever lived that was totally and unequivocally Radical against the corrupt system, and they killed him for it.

    That’s why none of his sermons were never done in any church, because it was the very religious scribes and Pharisees that hated him.

    Gatson Browne is for Globalism, when Globalism is the very antithesis for the individual calling oh Jesus Christ (put down your Cross and follow me).
    Remember even Satan offered Christ the entire world. How can you offer someone something that they already own?

    That’s GB. Offering everything to Antiguan’s who already own Antigua. Stop giving away the sea shores to rich oligarchs Gatson, and you will see how quickly your so-called global warming stops.

  3. Since Richard Lewis made a run at the UPP leadership race, and Harold Lovell is back in politics; Gaston Browne has been propping up Pringle.
    Jamal Pringle is now Gaston’s side kick. And with Gaston’s generous offer Pringle can’t refuse

    Why? Is Gadton so deadly afraid of Lewis and Lovell so he is propping up Pringle?
    Should Pringle go to Brazil he will be out of water and it serves only one man’s purpose.

  4. If I was the opposition I would not join this scam about climate just to monetize climate change, the Americans is going to blow some bombs down in Venezuela and I guess the gases from the explosion won’t affect the environment, but a cow fart methane gas will they say, so the cow must be eliminated and not the bombs with toxic gas and heat by the military industrial complex.
    Trump is right to back out and call it a hoax.
    But politicians seeking to full their pocket from it, it monies not accounted for by the consolidated funds, it will be stashed in an offshore bank account know only to the finance minister.

  5. Pringle be mindful and yes @Poor people money you are on point. Pringle should ask to bring his own team, of advisors with him . The Single Pringle could get lost, in the jungle by himself. There’s nothing wrong with collaboration between the parliamentarians when it comes to issues (real or perceived) which affects the Nation.
    As a matter of fact, there MUST be more collaborations, in particular on the CABINET side of things.
