“Putting America first should not mean putting Jamaica in jeopardy.”

That is the comment from former Prime Minister Bruce Golding, as he criticised the United States for what he says are pressuring demands and policies on Caribbean nations.

Mr. Golding expressed hope that the pressures will soon cease and that the hemisphere will again be peaceful.

The former Prime Minister also pledged to continue voicing his concerns about the U-S’ impact on Jamaica.
