Grenada on Thursday assumed the Chair of the Inter-American Committee against Terrorism at its Eleventh Regular Session at the Hall of the Americas at the Organization of American States (OAS).
Foreign Affairs Minister Karl Hood, who accepted the Chairmanship on Grenada’ behalf, is hoping that all Member States would adopt a unified and resounding declaration of the renewed commitment of the OAS membership in fighting terrorism and enhancing cooperation and capacities to do so.
He said that there has been impressive global cooperation over the last decade, and OAS Member States, especially through the committee have been leaders in meeting the transnational threat of terrorism by working as partners to prevent attacks, disrupt terrorist operations and protect our hemisphere from terrorism.
