Dominica\'s Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit has reportedly angered the governments of Antigua and Anguilla with comments he made on the campaign trail ahead of this Friday\'s general election.
Mr. Skerrit, who currently holds the Chairmanship of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank\'s Monetary Council, told a political rally that Anguilla and Antigua and Barbuda both received millions of dollars from the Dominican government.
He was at the time seeking to explain to supporters of his Dominica Labour Party that the country\'s economy was so stable it could have assisted other countries in the region.
However, both Anguilla and Antigua and Barbuda have denied that they received financial help from Dominica.
