UNC MP: Foreign Affairs ‘in shambles’

Turning to the situation in Venezuela, Charles claimed TT’s foreign policy here “lacks focus and direction and is based on short term considerations.” He alleged that were there a change in government then, “our cross border energy agreements may be at risk.” Minister in the Office of the Prime Minister Stuart Young has refuted this allegation made by Charles and other Opposition MPs. Charles claimed that Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley’s recent criticisms of the Organisation of the American States (OAS) Secretary General has caused Venezuelan opposition forces to see TT as “being too close to Maduro.”
