Foreign Policy
Saint Kitts and Nevis maintains close ties with the United States, the United Kingdom, and other Caribbean partners. Its foreign policy emphasises climate resilience, economic diversification (beyond sugar, which historically dominated the economy), and SIDS solidarity.
The country is an active participant in OECS and CARICOM common positions, and coordinates with other small island states in AOSIS on climate negotiations. Saint Kitts and Nevis recognises Taiwan, which influences its engagement with China.
MUN Delegate Guide
As the smallest state in the Americas, Saint Kitts and Nevis exemplifies the principle of sovereign equality -- your General Assembly vote carries the same weight as the United States. Use this fact strategically.
Coordinate closely with OECS and CARICOM partners to amplify your voice. Climate change is existential for your country -- lead with this in every debate where it is relevant. The citizenship-by-investment programme gives you an interesting economic diplomacy angle.
Your Taiwan recognition is a distinctive position. Understand the dynamics it creates and be prepared to navigate the cross-strait issue diplomatically. Focus on building coalitions with fellow small states across the Caribbean and Pacific.
