Kingston – The Governments of Jamaica and the United States of America (US) are close to finalising improved operational protocols pertaining to the Shiprider Agreement, under which both countries cooperate to curtail illicit maritime drug trafficking, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade, Senator Kamina Johnson Smith has disclosed.
She said that following several exchanges of proposals and counter-proposals, a consensus is near.
“With this latest round of exchanges now concluded, both sides have found agreement on the majority of proposed protocols. A meeting is now being scheduled between us parties to iron out the handful of issues where there still remains a difference of opinion,” the minister said.
