P.M. heads to Uganda for Commonwealth Summit
In other news out of Belmopan, the Prime Minister left the country today en route to Kampala, Uganda for a meeting of Commonwealth Heads of Government. The fifty-three member grouping of former British colonies includes countries as large as India and as technologically advanced as the U.K., Canada, and Australia. The commonwealth has traditionally been a strong backer of Belize’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and was among the first bodies to endorse Belize’s independence in the face of the Guatemalan claim.
