Prime Minister Gaston Browne of Antigua and Barbuda has emphasized the urgent need for global cooperation to reduce conflicts and tensions fueled by the proliferation of guns, particularly in the United States.

Browne highlighted the powerful influence of the gun lobby in U.S. politics, which has hindered meaningful action on gun control despite the alarming rate of senseless shootings.
“The guns come to the Carib, they come into Antigua too,” Browne stated, underscoring the interconnectedness of global arms flows and their impact on Caribbean nations. He expressed concern that inaction on gun control in the United States not only affects Americans but also has repercussions for countries like Antigua and Barbuda, where gun-related issues contribute to regional tensions.
Taking a proactive stance, Browne revealed that Antigua and Barbuda, alongside Mexico, has initiated legal action against gun manufacturers in the United States.
This move signifies a strong commitment to combating the spread of firearms that fuel violence and instability, both domestically and internationally.
“We’re not just talking; we’re taking action,” Browne asserted, highlighting the active role his country is playing in advocating for global peace and security. The decision to join litigation against gun manufacturers demonstrates Antigua and Barbuda’s determination to address the root causes of conflicts that extend beyond national borders.
This initiative, undertaken about a year ago, reflects ongoing efforts by Antigua and Barbuda to address transnational challenges and promote a safer world for all.
By standing up against the gun trade and advocating for stricter regulations, the nation is sending a clear message that collective action is essential in addressing the complex issue of gun violence and its global repercussions.

Gaston Browne, PM; please, stop with your #new_deal, #righteous_me rhetoric.
1…guns have always being a part of the American culture.
2…the proliferation of guns in the Caribbean, is not due to lax American gun laws; it’s due. to our Nation and the Caribbean at large, in dealing with the SMUGGLING INDUSTRY, which contributes to the GDP of many Caribbean Nations.
3…What you as PM, the Parliament and the CABINET must do, is to amend laws, pass laws to punish those found with illegal guns and ammo to serious MANDATORY Prison sentences. You can get some advice from the Turks and Cacous on how to handle illegal weapons/guns ammo.
4…The WHITE ELEPHANT in the room, is blowing its trunk and is asking, is America the only Nation which manufactures weapons?
Can China, Middle Eastern Nations, South American Nations, European Nations, the Soviet Union be shipping illegal weapons/guns, ammo to the Caribbean too?
One of the factors which is causing the proliferation of illegal guns and ammo, in Antigua is the LIFESTYLES of the People.
Please deal with the Culture, now being promoted and branded to the youths and grown ups too.
