Barbadian Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley has utilized the United Nations General Assembly to advocate for Caribbean stability and global systemic reform. She initially called for the establishment of a Caribbean ‘zone of peace’ and voiced strong opposition to the blockade and coercive measures against Cuba, citing the humanitarian pressures caused by restrictions on trade, finance, and fuel.

Mottley subsequently expanded her advocacy to address economic and environmental inequities. She argued that vulnerable nations face an “ecological debt” due to the high costs of climate change and requested reparatory justice for the historical legacies of slavery and human trafficking. Her recent focus has also extended to regional economic integration and energy security, highlighted by her confirmed participation in the 2027 Guyana Energy Conference and Supply Chain Expo.
