Barbados And New Zealand To Strengthen Economic Ties,

Barbados and New Zealand are exploring avenues for exploiting opportunities in
international business and pursuing closer economic and commercial cooperation.
These issues were the subject of recent discussions between the two governments
during a meeting between New Zealand High Commissioner to Barbados, Kathleen
Lackey, and Barbados Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade, and International
Business, Christopher Sinckler.
The two parties noted the commonalities between the countries, based on shared
Commonwealth traditions and institutions, and compared positions on multilateral
trade negations and trade liberalisation. The two sides also exchanged views
on climate change, especially as it relates to Small Island States.
The New Zealand High Commissioner complimented Barbados on its demonstration
of good governance and democracy over the years, and also stated that the country
had created an excellent environment for attracting new businesses and investment.
Minister Sinckler, while acknowledging that the two countries enjoyed good
diplomatic relations, agreed that opportunities existed to forge closer ties
and enhance bilateral cooperation.
Barbados and New Zealand have previously supported each other in international fora, and
the Barbados government stated that it would continue to cooperate with New
Zealand in this context.
The two countries established diplomatic ties in 1974, and have non-resident
accreditation to each other out of their High Commissions in Ottawa, Canada.
