ST.LUCIA-POLITICS-Opposition leader calls for removal of UN Ambassador

CASTRIES, St.Lucia, Feb. 28, CMC – Opposition Leader Stephenson King wants St.Lucia's Ambassador to the United Nations recalled following what he described as an embarrassing ordeal with the island losing its voting rights as a result of outstanding monies owed to the body. King told a news conference Wednesday that the development was an embarrassment not only for the government but the people of St.Lucia. He said that the excuses being made by Ambassador Menissa Rambally are quite “disappointing and astounding” and she should be immediately recalled. However, Rambally in a call to several media houses here essentially blamed the former Government for the debt situation which the country is faced with as well as the failure to pay the UN dues.
