Former PM Golding urges US to rebuild true friendship with Jamaica

Former Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding called for a recalibration of diplomatic relations between the United States and Jamaica during an address on Saturday. Golding expressed a desire for the U.S. to adopt a more conciliatory tone and strengthen the historical partnership between the two nations.

Golding argued that recent policy demands issued by Washington are inconsistent with the principles of a genuine friendship. His remarks emphasize a perceived tension in the current bilateral relationship, suggesting a need for the U.S. to move away from current pressures to restore the traditional bond shared by the countries.
