“We feel very honored, we are humbled. Above all, we are committed to honoring all the people of our country," he said.

With the 20 members of her new cabinet, the prime minister stated that they will focus on greater supervision, advancing in the necessary changes so that Barbados overcomes the critical moments it has experienced, turning the country into "one of the main ones in the world".
