CASTRIES, St. Lucia, CMC Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony is heading a two-member delegation to Venezuela for a meeting of PetroCaribe, an initiative of Caracas allowing many Caribbean countries to purchase oil on conditions of preferential payment.
St. Lucia has not joined the alliance that was launched in 2005, but a government statement said that attending the meeting would allow Castries to have an updated assessment of the initiative.
Last February, Prime Minister Anthony joined his counterparts from Dominica, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Antigua and Barbuda in attending the 11th summit of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas (ALBA) in Venezuela.
