President Obama is making a short but historic trip to Kingston, Jamaica, on the eve of the Summit of the Americas to be held in Panama (April 10-11). During his visit, Obama will meet with the Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) for discussions on regional security and trade. This presents an opportunity for leaders to discuss how the American-Caribbean strategic cooperation framework can be broadened to incorporate non-traditional security matters, such as climate change.
