St Vincent did not give US authorisation for deadly boat strikes, prime minister says
SAN JOSÉ, Costa Rica (AP) — The Prime Minister of St Vincent and the Grenadines said Tuesday that his government did not give the United States authorisation for a recent strike on an alleged drug boat in local waters that killed three people. Prime Minister Godwin Friday said at a press conference that his administration found out about the deadly February 13 strike through social media and online reports. “There has been no direct communication with respect to the strikes with us,” he said, adding that Caribbean leaders are concerned.
