Prime Minister Dr. Timothy Harris hopes to build on long lasting relationship with US

KITTS-NEVIS 

Prime Minister Dr. Timothy Harris says he is looking forward to the building upon the longstanding relationship between St. Kitts-Nevis and the United States following the “decisive electoral victory” of Republican Donald Trump on Tuesday.

In a congratulatory message sent to the President–elect, Harris said Trump had attained a “decisive elector victory…particularly during a presidential race that saw record voter turnout, rally crowds and debate viewership throughout the campaign cycle”.

He said it was also noteworthy that Trump has had no “political or military experience, but rather strong business and negotiating skills that have been honed from a background in multinational real estate development and licensing, as well as television production.

“My Government and I are looking forward to seeing you govern as the 45th  President of the United States of America, as you work to execute your mandate of bringing jobs and prosperity to your country and protecting its interests around the world.  Your stirring message of change has energized and electrified the American electorate and changed the political playbook.”

“Our countries have a longstanding relationship built on mutual respect and support, and I am optimistic that through bold leadership and continued partnership we will accomplish even more together,” Prime Minister Harris added.
