President David Granger yesterday asserted at a security forum in Brazil that natural disasters and humanitarian crises in small countries require as much attention as armed conflicts.
In the giant neighbouring country for a series of engagements, Granger told a forum on Continental Security Cooperation in South America at the Paulo Nogueira Batista Auditorium at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Brazil that the devastation that the world has seen during the recent hurricane season in the Region has exposed the need for the creation of a platform for small States to be able to respond to such crises.
