SUBJECT: Inter-Agency Group on Eastern Caribbean Regional Security

During the past several months considerable attention has been focused on the serious economic problems plaguing the Eastern Caribbean. The CBI and its special aid programs were designed to respond to these specific needs. But the security problems facing the small and vulnerable island states remain a central concern.

On April 14, 1983, a pre-IG at the working level was convened for purposes of determining the range of issues affecting Eastern Caribbean regional security and focusing recommendations for Inter-Agency Group consideration. The pre-IG, with representatives of State, DOD, CIA, NSC and Coast Guard, was able to reach agreement on a number of key issues. Nevertheless several remain to be resolved, and all recommended courses of action require review and confirmation through the IG forum.

We invite you to participate in the IG scheduled for Wednesday, June 15, at 4:00 p.m. in Room 3242 at the Department of State. Attached for consideration by the IG is a list and brief synopsis of the issues together with a summary of views expressed at the pre-IG.

Please telephone the name of your agency’s representative to Mr. Peter F. O’Meara at 632-4194.

Charles Hill Executive Secretary
