Prime Minister Philip ‘Brave’ Davis met with Vice President Kamala Harris at The White House on Tuesday to discuss a number of issues facing The Bahamas and the wider Caribbean region.
A statement from the Office of the Prime Minister said: “The United States reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening partnerships with our country and with the nations and the people of The Caribbean.
“In discussing items relating to our bilateral relationship, the Prime Minister and the Vice President emphasised the importance of both strengthening efforts to combat illegal maritime migration and reducing the flow of guns illegally entering The Bahamas from the United States.
“The Prime Minister also raised the importance of reinstating pre-clearance facilities in Grand Bahama, a critical step to support the island’s economic recovery,” the statement continued.
“The discussion widened to cover a number of regional issues, including food and energy security, and efforts to combat climate change.
“As Chairman of CARICOM, the Prime Minister believes it is important for the United States and other partners in the hemisphere to support Haitian-led efforts to stabilise that country and find a path forward out of crisis.”

Hopefully Ms. Harris understood what our PM was saying and simply wasn't shaking her head. Sometimes it takes a lot of effort to translate the PM's words into English. He has gotten considerably clearly over the years though so kudos to him.

The only US interest is The Bahamas won’t become another Haiti. Otherwise black eyes from overflight fees to FTX misappropriated funds to BahaMar.
