Maritime accord attacked

The parliamentary opposition in Grenada believes the country brokered a bad deal when it signed a new maritime boundary agreement with Trinidad and Tobago.



Former energy minister, Gregory Bowen is claiming that Grenada negotiated from a position of ignorance.



According to him, Trinidad and Tobago had all the information on oil and gas potential in the region.



Mr. Bowen says the current administration should have allowed a Russian company to begin energy exploration in Grenada’s waters to gather data before signing a maritime accord.
