I correctly predicted that the United States would, if sufficiently threatened by ANTIGUA and DOMINICA's improperly administered Citizenship by Investment (CBI/CIP) programs, block visas for all passport holders from those jurisdictions, not just CBI passports. Given that Prime Minister GASTON BROWNE has very publicly told U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, (and the EU), that he will not cancel CIP, I have repeatedly warned that there will be additional measures implemented.
The CBI states of the Eastern Caribbean all have economies focused on the cash flow generated by American tourism; that is an achilles heel, Mister Browne, which you failed to remember, when making your nationalistic public statements. Americans arrive via airlines and cruise ships. We see that JET BLUE, one of the principal American flag airlines serving Antigua, has now abruptly cancelled its scheduled service; alleging restructuring. We wonder, though, whether there was American Governmental pressure behind this corporate move, and whether cruise lines will now also rearrange their ports of call to avoid Antigua?
BTW, Secretary Rubio is now being touted as the frontrunner for Republican candidate as President of the United States. What will he do to get the nomination, we ask?
