The Prime Minister of Saint Lucia, Philip J. Pierre, expressed reservations following a decision by a U.S. federal judge who overturned a policy of the Trump administration suspending visas for immigrants from 75 countries, including Saint Lucia. Pierre emphasized that it is better to wait for the outcome of a possible appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. The decision was described as "manifestly illegal" by the judge, who challenged the legitimacy of the suspension.
