Real Madrid seems to be evolving strategically — not just on the pitch, but in how they’re structured financially. Opening up a small stake to outside investors could give them more firepower in the transfer market and long-term projects, while still preserving their member-owned identity.

Joint Chiefs Chairman praises US sailors during Caribbean mission The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan Caine, along with the Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman (SEAC), David L. Isom, recently visited the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Lake Erie (CG-70) while it operated in the Caribbean Sea. During the visit, General Caine met with Sailors and thanked them for their professionalism, dedication, and continued outstanding service, including the sacrifices made by both the service members and their families while deployed and working over the Thanksgiving holiday period. He received operational updates from the ship’s leadership and toured key areas aboard the vessel, gaining a firsthand understanding of the crew’s mission and ongoing responsibilities in the region. Several Sailors were formally recognized for exceptional performance, and the Chairman expressed his appreciation to the entire crew for their continued commitment to excellence and mission readiness. This engagement in the Caribbean came as part of wider regional interaction, which also included recent meetings in Trinidad and Tobago, where General Caine held discussions with Prime Minister Hon. Kamla Persad-Bissessar and senior government ministers on Tuesday November 25th, focused on strengthening cooperation on regional security and stability.

Rubio Talks about Ukrainian & Russian Deal

Griffith: ‘Government shouldn’t ask others to revoke visas’ FORMER national security minister Gary Griffith has expressed concern over reports that Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander is seeking help from the US Embassy to revoke the visas of US-based social media users including bloggers, who have dual nationality, and who are targeting Trinidad and Tobago by spreading propaganda and fear.

Griffith: ‘Government shouldn’t ask others to revoke visas’ FORMER national security minister Gary Griffith has expressed concern over reports that Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander is seeking help from the US Embassy to revoke the visas of US-based social media users including bloggers, who have dual nationality, and who are targeting Trinidad and Tobago by spreading propaganda and fear. Griffith’s concerns came against the background of Fisherman and Friends of the Sea’s secretary Gary Aboud’s US visa being revoked. Aboud claimed this happened because of his public opposition to government’s support of US military deployment in the southern Caribbean which began in August. In a video posted on social media on November 24, Griffith said it was the right of any country to deny a visa to anyone who wishes to enter that country, if that person breached laws of that country. Griffith, also a former police commissioner and TT Regiment captain, added he has been engaged in public service over the last 30 years. “Never in my life have I ever seen a politician who holds a position of authority in a government write to another country to revoke the visas of citizens in their own country,” Griffith said. Griffith, who was national security minister and a national security adviser at different times in Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s May 2010-September 2015 administration, said he was certain Persad-Bissessar “would not endorse a situation where we are in a position now to try to get politicians to write to other countries to take action against citizens of TT.” He said this could be perceived as a dog whistle for citizens who express views contrary to the government to be muzzled. Griffith added he did not think this was the case. He said people are entitled to their views and if they break the law, police can take action against them. In a release on November 21, Aboud questioned whether the government had a hand to play in the visa decision. In a response on the same day, Persad-Bissessar denied her government’s involvement in the visa revocation and said Aboud’s comments were reckless. Persad-Bissessar has publicly supported the deployment of US military personnel and officers to the southern Caribbean Sea, with the Trump administration’s description of this being an anti-narcotics exercise aimed at stopping narco-trafficking originating from Venezuela.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine has already departed from Trinidad this afternoon after meeting with Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar and members of her Cabinet. Caine arrived in Trinidad on an official US aircraft this morning at the Piarco International airport, and met with Persad-Bissessar at the diplomatic centre in St Ann’s. Present at the meeting were Minister of Public Utilities Barry Padarath, Minister of Homeland Security Roger Alexander, Minister of Defence Wayne Sturge, and Attorney General John Jeremie. Details of what was discussed in the meeting have not yet been disclosed to the public. Caine however departed Trinidad shortly before 2.p.m. on the aircraft believed to be bound for Puerto Rico. Caine and Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Joint Chiefs of Staff David Isom had visited members of the US 346th Air Expeditionary Wing and Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 225, prior to the visit. He also visited the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Lake Erie (CG 70). The Joint Staff posted that Caine met with sailors underway in the Caribbean sea and thanked them for their professionalism and “continued, outstanding service during the Thanksgiving holiday season.” He also received updates from leadership and toured key spaces to gain a firsthand understanding of what the crew is accomplishing while underway. The US Embassy in Port of Spain yesterday stated that Persad-Bissessar and Gen. Caine were expected discuss the two nations’ “strong bi-lateral relationship, strengthening regional stability, and regional unity on the vital importance of countering illicit trafficking and transnational criminal organizations. Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar also yesterday acknowledged the visit. Stating that the meeting came at the request of the US government, and that details would be shared with the media after it occurred, Yesterday the New York Times reported on Caine’s visit to the region, stating that the reason for the trip was to thank US troops ahead of Thanksgiving. The Times reported that Caine has been a major part of the Operation Southern Spear, under which the US’ deployment of numerous warships, at least 15,000 troops and the USS Gerald R Ford aircraft carrier in Caribbean waters, has been named. The US has claimed that this build up and the 21 lethal boat strikes carried out in the region by the US military which have thus far killed 82 are part of an effort to stymie the flow of drugs in the region, and its effect on American citizens. But his visit comes as pressure on neighbouring Venezuela mounts, and on the heels of the conclusion of Joint exercises between the US 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit and the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force (TTDF) last week.

Angostura looks to shake up New York ANGOSTURA continues to explore opportunities to enhance its global brand as it has launched a bold campaign in New York, celebrating the company’s iconic bitters and world-renowned rums. Designed to increase brand awareness, the comprehensive campaign is being rolled out throughout November. This includes major large format placements on a billboard, digital kiosks and hand-painted wall in Williamsburg and Lower Manhattan. These areas were chosen for their strong cocktail culture and proximity to high-foot-traffic areas, on-premises accounts, and public transit. In August, Angostura rums and bitters took centre stage in Times Square, New York City, one of the most iconic advertising locations, as its products lit up in a 15-second advertisement running in a continuous loop. The current campaign in New York focuses on Angostura bitters range and marks a significant step in the company’s accelerated growth strategy within its largest international markets. The New York City campaign is being driven by an Angostura bitters-led theme, “Inspiring Cocktail Creativity”, to elevate everyday drinks into crafted cocktails. The US is Angostura’s largest international market, and the company is expanding its footprint throughout the country. Angostura advertises on a digital board in New York.. - Angostura’s acting CEO Ian Forbes said, “This campaign represents an important time for the Angostura brand in the US as our goal is to deepen visibility, strengthen relevance with our consumers, and highlight how Angostura bitters transform mixology – whether at home or behind the bar.” "By amplifying our presence in New York, Angostura is reinforcing its international expansion. The company will continue to pursue high-impact opportunities across global markets, ensuring its iconic bitters and rums remain essential to cocktail and culinary cultures worldwide. Our products are available in over 170 markets." Angostura commercial manager Leesha Alexander recently spoke to TV6 about expanding the company's footprint. "We've been able to show up in a grander scale outside of TT as well," she said. She said the company has featured its products in Greece, UK and New York. "We are also waving that flag for Angostura and TT, just really focusing on innovation – very important part to our strategy." She said an Angostura brand ambassador recently visited Easter Island, a remote volcanic island, renowned for its archeological sites, in Chile. "Even though we don't have a direct trade with Easter Island, the product is available at the bars out there. We continue to promote the distribution of our products We are at most major markets where the product is allowed." Forbes said bitters has blazed a trail and opened markets for Angostura's premium rums. "Our premium rums are in approximately 60 countries around the world, and there is the opportunity now to follow the part blazed by Angostura (bitters)..It's a tag-team arrangement where Angostura opens the markets for our premium rums to follow."

Caine, the primary military advisor to US President Donald Trump, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the UN National Security Council, arrived in TT around 11 am and is currently at the Diplomatic Centre, St Ann's. In a media release on November 24, the US embassy said the meeting will focus on the two nations’ strong bi-lateral relationship, strengthening regional stability and the vital importance to both countries of countering the illicit traffic in drugs and transnational criminal organisations. Caine's arrival in TT follows two recent visits by the US 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit to TT for military drills with the TT Defence Force. The USS Gravely, carrying members of the elite unit, arrived in TT from October 26-30. A second visit by the unit took place from November 16-21. US warships have been arriving in the Southern Caribbean since late August as part of an anti-drug trafficking operation, which has been supported by the TT government. However, the presence of the warships has been criticised by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro who has accused the US of seeking regime change and TT of facilitating such. Persad-Bissessar has insisted that the US operations are solely geared towards combating drug trafficking. Read more
