On the day Carlo Azeglio Ciampi was born in Livorno, on 9 December 1920, the Italian daily Corriere della Sera featured, among other things, a political and institutional maelstrom and two important economic questions. The former was related to the Government’s ‘resolution to apply the Treaty of Rapallo’.
In my respectful view, however, the CARICOM model which seeks to connect our small island states through trade and markets, has reached its limits.
