TRINIDAD and Tobago is seeking covid19 vaccines from the European Union (EU).
Leader of Government Business Camille Robinson-Regis made this announcement in the House of Representatives on Monday.
Responding to a question from the Opposition on behalf of Foreign and Caricom Affairs Minister Dr Amery Browne, Robinson-Regis said Government is following up on an announcement by EU Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakidou on May 21 that the EU is developing a mechanism to share surplus vaccines with developing countries.
Robinson-Regis said communication with the EU to acquire some of its surplus vaccines will be done through correspondence by the Prime Minister and this country's ambassador to the EU, who is based in Brussels, Belgium. Dr Rowley is the current Caricom chairman.
