Excellency, in November of 2005, I was pleased to receive, on behalf of the Caribbean Community, the credentials of your predecessor, His Excellency Ambassador Boursin, as the French Republic’s first Ambassador accredited to the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).
It is with a sense of profound sadness that I have learnt of the passing of Angela King, a distinguished Jamaican, a standard-bearer for the Caribbean in the international arena, and a citizen of the world.
