Barbados National Day

On behalf of the United States of America, I send my best regards to the Barbadian people as you commemorate 58 years of independence.

Our nations are connected by a deep and historic partnership, and our shared commitment to addressing global challenges in the Caribbean region and beyond. Through the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative, we are collaborating to disrupt trafficking of narcotics and weapons through maritime law enforcement, mutual legal assistance, and diplomatic engagement on all aspects of regional security. Under the U.S.-Caribbean Partnership to Address the Climate Crisis (PACC 2030), we are building a more sustainable future with projects in renewable energy and disaster preparedness.

I wish Barbados a wonderful National Day celebration and look forward to deepening our bilateral relationship.
