Madam President:
I would like to express my deepest condolences and solidarity to the governments and people of Jamaica, Haiti and the Dominican Republic, who have suffered loss of life due to Hurricane Melissa. I also extend my condolences to Panama which has suffered some losses due to heavy rains, and our best wishes to the Bahamas and Bermuda.
I speak on behalf of a people who are currently facing a monstrous hurricane with scarce resources, relying almost entirely on willpower, unity, and solidarity.
