The Spin
Pro-establishment narrative
The international community is fully aware of the drastic situation that Trinidad and Tobago has been experiencing as a consequence of this large oil drill, especially regarding the costs of responding to this incident and the subsequent cleanup. Many countries have already offered support to the dual-island nation and talks are ongoing.
Establishment-critical narrative
It's certain that this oil spill has, unlike hundreds of others off Trinidad and Tobago's coast over the past years, attracted at least some international attention, but it is simply isn't enough. The international community must be ready to substantially support the Caribbean country, and those responsible must be held accountable.
