| CARICOM Signs Cooperation MoU With Austria |
by Ulrika Lomas, for LawAndTax-News.com, Brussels
Thursday, October 02, 2008
Secretary-General of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), Edwin Carrington, and
the Secretary of State in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Austria, Hans Winkler,
have announced this week that they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) on CARICOM-Austria cooperation.
The major areas of focus of the MOU will be disaster management and alternative
energy although other key areas such as trade and investment will also feature.
During the CARICOM meeting, matters of priority interest to CARICOM on the UN agenda
were addressed by the council and the coordination of strategies and positions
undertaken. Among these issues, the climate change negotiating process, the
initiative on the Caribbean Sea in the context of sustainable development, the
food crisis, financing for development, and the ongoing UN reform process, especially
with respect to the UN Security Council all came under discussion.
Additionally, heads of government and foreign ministers of CARICOM addressed
the General Assembly (UNGA) and underlined the principles and values that underpin
the Community’s foreign relations stance - multilateralism and the rule
of international law.
They also drew attention to the concerns and threats that impinge on the social
and economic development and security of the Community’s Member States.
Particular mention was made of climate change, drug and small arms trafficking,
decreasing overseas development assistance and reduced access to concessionary
development finance as well as the inequitable terms of international trade.
By bringing together the leaders of a large number of Member States, the UNGA
provides the opportunity for bilateral and multilateral exchanges among countries
that do not meet regularly thereby helping to strengthen or to initiate diplomatic
and cooperation links.
The meeting also facilitated a quick update on the follow-up to the Conference
on the Caribbean of 2007 in Washington D.C. and a mutual pledge to establish
a formal, institutional framework to leave a strong platform for continued CARICOM-US
dialogue.
An exchange of views took place on the issue of trade and investment and on
the relief and recovery needs of Haiti following the disastrous series of hurricanes
which took place early last month.
