Potential Diplomatic Fallout Between Jamaica and USA?

Recent reports indicate the possibility of a growing rift between Jamaica and the USA due to Jamaica’s refusal to facilitate the accreditation request of the spouse of an American diplomat. While the couple is recognized as married in the USA, this status is not acknowledged in Jamaica because same-sex marriage is illegal in the country. This situation raises significant implications for both nations.

In the studio, we have the esteemed Professor Dr. Gary Oates from Bowling Green State University, Ohio, USA, and Dr. Daniel Thomas from the Love March Movement to discuss the potential consequences of this diplomatic disagreement.
