The President of the Executive Council of Martinique, Serge Letchimy, visited the Caribbean Export Development Agency in Barbados February 21st, 2025.

The visit coincided with Martinique’s significant milestone of signing an accession agreement to become an associate member of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). During discussions at Caribbean Export, President Letchimy outlined a comprehensive framework aimed at deepening Martinique’s integration into the Caribbean market.

He outlined the dual identity of Martinique as both European and Caribbean, highlighting the island’s strategic position to serve as a bridge between the European Union and CARICOM member states. A focal point of the meeting was the exploration of relationships between African, Caribbean, and Pacific (ACP) countries and the European Union’s outermost regions.
