Salutations
It is my pleasure to chair this opening session of the Seventh Meeting of the Council for National Security and Law Enforcement (CONSLE). I am sure that you will have no reservation endorsing my request for this CONSLE to join President Bharrat Jagdeo of the Republic of Guyana, the Secretary-General of the Caribbean Community and other CARICOM leaders in acknowledging one of the most historic events in modern times and offering our warmest congratulations to President-elect of the USA, Senator Barack Obama.
