History

[edit]

In February 2020 the two Heads of Government for both Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago initialed several agreements including one which would see the sharing of various diplomatic chancery resources around the world.[1][2]

In November 2021, Barbados announced that it would launch the world's first embassy in the decentralised metaverse, an attempt to reach diplomatic parity.[3]
