In an impressive display of hospitality and organizational finesse, Antigua and Barbuda has garnered accolades from international delegates and observers alike for successfully hosting the 55th Regular Session of the Organisation of American States (OAS) General Assembly.

The event, which concluded today, showcased not only the country’s scenic beauty but also the warmth of its people and exceptional organization skills.

Foreign Affairs Minister E.P. Chet Greene has received widespread praise for his leadership throughout the assembly. Feedback from attendees has highlighted the well-managed proceedings and Antigua’s stunning backdrop as key factors in the event’s success.

As the final day of the assembly unfolded, numerous bilateral meetings took place, with Prime Minister Gaston Browne engaging in discussions alongside Greene and Permanent Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Dr. Clarence Pilgrim.

These meetings have been vital for fostering international relationships and addressing critical regional issues.

Minister Greene, who chaired the plenary sessions, oversaw a packed agenda filled with side-meetings and engagements—traditional elements of OAS gatherings that encourage meaningful dialogue.

Today’s closing session featured presentations from influential organizations including the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, the Pan American Health Organization, and the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission.

As the assembly wraps up, Antigua and Barbuda has not only reinforced its position as a key player in regional diplomacy but also left a lasting impression on the world stage with its charm and commitment to collaboration.
