Opposition Leader Jamale Pringle said the United Progressive Party has already initiated efforts to engage the United States as part of a push to restore strained international relations.
Speaking during a virtual UPP public rally, Pringle told supporters the party was actively pursuing dialogue with international partners and was not waiting passively for political change.
“We assure you that the United Progressive Party is not sitting idly. We have already made moves to sit down with our international partners, starting with the United States, to discuss how trust can be restored and our relationships can be improved,” Pringle said.
He also said the party was prepared to consult taxpayers and stakeholders on the future of the Citizenship by Investment Programme, warning that the programme must serve the interests of the public.
“If it doesn’t, then we will have to make the tough decision to scrap the CIP programme,” Pringle said.
The remarks came amid ongoing public debate over visa restrictions, international scrutiny, and Antigua and Barbuda’s diplomatic standing, issues that featured prominently throughout the rally.

This isn’t about “good relations”. The days of easy access to western countries are over. The government, the opposition, and Antigua people need to pivot.

ANTIGUA MASH UP IF THAT HAPPEN
Antigua/Barbuda is already mashed up under the present thieves. The U.S doesn’t want any dialog with them so the info that they are feeding us is through third and fourth parties.
@Rovi
Stay out of BLACK People businesses. You and your wicked colonizers have already done enough to our people.
Enjoy your tan and shut up!!!
As a leader of a First World country, I would prefer to have diologue with a leader that is not too bright and know I can trust him, than a Leader who is one of the world’s greatest charlatan and know I can trust his words. There is a saying (theif no lub theif with longer bag)
@Byam.
Isn’t that the point.
Why would any country wants outsiders to have easy access to their country, including Antigua?
A 1000 damn illegal migrants came on a plane to Antigua trying to get to the US, and your bwoi GB just let them on their way..is that acceptable immigration policies to you?
Some of y’all should just stop talking just to sound intelligent.
And pivot to what, Chinese embassy’s all over the Caribbean?
Just dumb.
There is sentiment in the US where many would tell you that the person who tell you how he feels to your face, are not the ones to worry about, it’s those who smiles to you and are the ones who are conspiring to kill you.
I can always respect a man who can tell you as it truly is in his heart.why you think that Asian societies are the most Gambling societies in the entire world? Any man who trust an habitual gambler is an idiot
Get a clue.
Those folks that came into Antigua on ANTIGUA AIRWAYS. They were very rich people,ask GASMAN BROWNE.However,they were leaving Antigua,by any means.The tragedy of this whole affair.Some were leaving Antigua on a very small boat.They unfortunately did not reach their intended destinations.Off the coast of St.kitts the boat sank and most drowned.Since then,not one word,no investigation,nothing.Are there any Africans still in Antigua from that Antigua Airways Flight? By the way.What has become of that one flight ANTIGUA AIRWAYS? GASTON,THE GASMAN,BROWNE.We the people need answers now,like yesterday.Just hoping,both you and Maria are not taken out of ANtigua and be flown north,like your very good friend and his wife.
This is simply nonsense! That’s the most energy I’ll give this. Sad.
@islandman26, I didn’t say anything about china, and you must be new. Gaston has never and will never by my “boi”. The west has pivoted against the global south; America, Canada, Europe et al. We also need to pivot even those squatting in America.
