Debate Over Self-Determination for Caribbean Overseas Territories Intensifies
The issue of self-determination for Caribbean overseas territories is gaining attention following a visit by the CARICOM Reparations Committee to London. The committee called for independence for territories under European control, including those of the UK, Netherlands, and France. The British Caribbean territories, such as Anguilla, Bermuda, and the British Virgin Islands, are self-governing but remain under British foreign affairs and defense oversight. The debate centers on whether these territories should seek full independence or maintain their current status. The United Nations also monitors the political status of these territories, emphasizing the importance of self-determination.
