Caribbean regional diplomacy and cooperation

Overview

Diplomatic relations and cooperation within the Caribbean region have been a focus of recent discussions. In September 2026, the Dutch House of Representatives’ Committee for Kingdom Relations urged the Dutch cabinet to restore formal consultation procedures with Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten, following complaints that these territories are not consistently consulted on decisions affecting the Kingdom.

By October 2026, bilateral efforts to strengthen regional ties continued as Aruban Prime Minister Mike Eman visited Curaçao. The visit included meetings with the Parliament of Curaçao to discuss shared interests and leverage political experience for the future development of both islands.
