The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, presented the Report on the Drug Problem in the Americas to the Regular Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), held in Trinidad and Tobago.

The Secretary General presented the Report in the meeting, and also delivered a copy to the Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, who currently holds the Chair of the Conference of Heads of Government of CARICOM. The Report was produced by the hemispheric Organization under Secretary General Insulza’s supervision, pursuant to a mandate from the Sixth Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia. The document is divided into two parts; the Analytical Report and the Scenarios Report.

Within the framework of the CARICOM meeting, which he has attended each year since assuming his position in 2005, Secretary General Insulza met with several Caribbean leaders, among them the Prime Ministers of The Bahamas, Perry Christie, and Saint Kitts and Nevis, Denzil Douglas.
