The People&rsquo;s National Party (PNP) is criticising what it calls the Government&rsquo;s failure to demonstrate solidarity at the 80th UN General Assembly. In a release, Senator Donna Scott-Mottley, Opposition Spokesperson on Foreign, Regional and Diaspora Affairs, noted that the Jamaican Government was absent during key moments at the Assembly.
