The American Eagle Speaks 🦅

Will the Flamingo listen? 🦩

In a statement by the U.S. Embassy, officials expressed concern over Friday’s groundbreaking ceremony for the New Providence hospital project, citing unresolved questions surrounding the financing arrangement and what it could mean for Bahamian sovereignty. The embassy said it was troubled by the speed at which the project is moving forward despite outstanding issues related to the terms of the deal.

“We are disappointed to see this project move forward so quickly when fundamental concerns about the terms of the deal remain unaddressed,” said U.S. Ambassador to The Bahamas Herschel Walker. “I question the decision to rush forward with a deal that places the hospital financing under Chinese law and jurisdiction on Bahamian soil.”

Ambassador Walker added that the United States remains committed to supporting healthcare infrastructure that benefits Bahamians under fair and transparent terms. “The United States remains committed to supporting healthcare infrastructure that truly serves Bahamian interests, under terms that respect Bahamian sovereignty, adhere to international norms, and mitigate project risks for The Bahamas,” he said. “The United States’ offer to help The Bahamas secure better financing options—whether from public or private sources—remains on the table.”
