Ex-PM Rowley Criticizes Government’s Foreign Policy

Former Prime Minister Keith Rowley has publicly criticized the current administration’s foreign policy, alleging it undermines Trinidad and Tobago’s sovereignty and regional influence. Rowley voiced concern over the government’s political submission, describing it as a departure from principles of self-determination. He criticized warnings suggesting the country must appease the United States to maintain visa access, labelling these as reckless and degrading. Rowley also highlighted the government’s withdrawal from key CARICOM matters, warning it could isolate the country within the Caribbean Community. He accused the government of failing to inform the public about U.S. agreements and restricting media scrutiny. Rowley concluded by warning that current governance poses risks to national dignity, constitutional principles, and global influence, expressing hope for reversal but cautioning that current trends do not inspire confidence.
