The Government of Antigua and Barbuda has issued a strong condemnation of recent actions by the United Progressive Party (UPP) on the beaches of the country. The government described the actions as irresponsible and detrimental to the nation’s tourism industry, which is a critical part of the economy.

In a statement, the government urged all political parties to act responsibly and avoid actions that could harm the country’s reputation or its economic interests. The government also emphasized the importance of maintaining the pristine condition of the beaches, which are a major attraction for tourists.

The UPP has not yet responded to the government’s statement. The incident has sparked a debate among citizens about the role of political parties in protecting the environment and supporting the tourism sector.
