Latest developments
Grenada’s Minister for Foreign Affairs and Labour, Peter David, signed the TPNW on the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons on 26 September 2019, during a special High-Level Ceremony at the UN Headquarters in New York. As a member of CARICOM, Grenada aligned itself with the group's statement in First Committee of the 2020 UN General Assembly, which highlighted the TPNW and called 'for the denuclearization of all areas of the world.'

Recommendations
- Grenada should urgently ratify the TPNW, and encourage other states to adhere to the Treaty.
- Grenada should conclude and bring into force an Additional Protocol (AP) with the IAEA.
