History

Control of the island of Saint Vincent was ceded to Britain by the French following the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The French recaptured the island but ceded it again after the second Treaty of Paris in 1783.[1]

The British began a program of agricultural development and established plantations across the island; a program opposed by local Black Caribs.[citation needed]

Saint Vincent remained under French colonial rule for the until independence movements began in the 20th century.

Saint Vincent was granted "associate statehood" status by Britain on 27 October 1969. This gave Saint Vincent complete control over its internal affairs but was short of full independence. On 27 October 1979, following a referendum under Milton Cato, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines became the last of the Windward Islands to gain independence. Independence came on the 10th anniversary of Saint Vincent's associate statehood status.[2]

Current relations

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines maintains a High Commission in South Kensington in London and a consulate-general in Comber, Northern Ireland.[3] In turn, the United Kingdom maintains a High Commission in Kingstown.

Economic relations

From December 2008 until 30 December 2020, trade between Saint Vincent and the UK was governed by the CARIFORUMEuropean Union Economic Partnership Agreement.[4] Following the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union, the UK and the CARIFORUM states signed a continuity trade agreement based on the EU agreement; this agreement has governed Saint Vincent and the Grenadines–UK trade since 1 January 2021.[5][6]
