The Con­fer­ence of Heads of Gov­ern­ment of Cari­com met very ear­ly to­day fol­low­ing re­ports of mil­i­tary ac­tion in Venezuela.

In a brief state­ment, Cari­com said it is ac­tive­ly mon­i­tor­ing the sit­u­a­tion, which it de­scribed as be­ing of grave con­cern to the Re­gion, with pos­si­ble im­pli­ca­tions for neigh­bour­ing coun­tries.

Cari­com said it will con­tin­ue to up­date the peo­ple of the Re­gion as more in­for­ma­tion be­comes avail­able.
