UDP Seeks Mediation to Resolve Political Conflict with Alliance for Democracy

Описание: With the 2025 general election looming, the United Democratic Party (UDP) has expressed interest in resolving its political conflict with the Alliance for Democracy. In a very public falling out last year, the UDP expelled several of its prominent members, after the Alliance conjured up what it referred to as a leadership convention in an attempt to oust the UDP Leader, Moses Shyne Barrow. The attempts have failed so far as the court has ordered that the situation revert to how it was before the October 20 event by the Alliance.  With both parties agreeing to go to mediation, Barrow told the media today that there are two proposals on the table in the name of compromise.  The first proposal would see the Alliance and UDP forming a coalition, with the UDP refraining from putting forward candidates for the Collet, Queen Square, Albert, Belize Rural Central and the Cayo North constituencies, giving the Alliance the option to choose its own candidates.  The other option would be to have the UDP rescind the expulsion of alliance members and have them return to run under the UDP banner, providing that they acknowledge and respect his leadership. The condition in this second proposal would be that John Saldivar remains excluded from a place of party prominence.

Barrow says that, as the UDP prepares to engage in court-ordered mediation with the Alliance, these proposals would be the basis for those negotiations. Last week, ahead of the mediation, Tracy Panton announced that the Alliance would be putting together 18 candidates for the upcoming elections.
