Browne Questions PM's Venezuela Move | Trinidad and Tobago News

Opposition Senator Amery Browne is skeptical about Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s recent public overtures toward Venezuela’s acting President Delcy Rodriguez, calling the informal nature of the proposed meeting at the UN General Assembly unorthodox and diplomatically naive. Once Foreign and CARICOM Affairs Minister, Browne argues that high-level summits require formal channels, not spontaneous announcements, and questions whether this move signals a retreat from past tensions or a lack of serious diplomatic strategy. He criticizes the PM’s personal tone toward Rodriguez as unbecoming of statesmanship, especially given prior government actions that have strained relations. While hoping for improved ties, Browne expresses deep concern that the current approach lacks consistency, dignity, and the foundational principles needed for effective foreign policy — urging the government to demonstrate real commitment rather than performative gestures.
