Sturge Urges SOE Extension Amid Political Tensions in Trinidad and Tobago

In a bold appeal, Defence Minister Wayne Sturge has asserted that Trinidad and Tobago can be governed without a state of emergency (SOE), but stresses that the country isn’t quite ready for that transition just yet. He argues for a three-month extension of the current SOE, citing ongoing challenges that warrant continued special measures. This request, however, has drawn resistance from the PNM opposition, who are firmly against extending the SOE. As tensions escalate, the Prime Minister must navigate these political waters carefully and decide how to proceed. The decision could have significant implications for governance and public safety within the nation.
