Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Denzil Douglas traveled to London to participate in the 26th Meeting of Commonwealth Foreign Affairs Ministers (CFAMM), attended by representatives from across the 56 Commonwealth nations.
Dr. Douglas addressed the assembly, stating that the group must leverage its collective voice to advance the interests of member states, with a focus on St. Kitts and Nevis. He stressed the importance of consultation to ensure every voice at the Commonwealth table is heard.
Dr. Douglas arrived in London on Saturday and shared updates on his visit via social media. His itinerary includes three days of multilateral and bilateral meetings at Lancaster House, alongside fellow foreign ministers and heads of delegation during a special retreat.
