1. Embassy Grenada received on January 9, 2009 Government of
Grenada diplomatic Note Number:PF-A38/08 dated January 8, 2009,
advising that the term of office of His Excellency Denis
Antoine, Ambassador to the United States of America will end
effective January 9, 2009. Since we do not know whether
Grenada's Embassy sent the note to the Department, we forward
the text (para 2 below) for appropriate handling. The note does
not address Antoine's tenure as Grenada's Ambassador to the
Organization of American States.


2. Begin text:

Note No: PF-A38/08

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Grenada presents its
compliments to the Embassy of the United States of America in
St. George's and has the honour to advise that the term of
office of His Excellency Denis Antoine to the USA will end
effective 9th January, 2009.

The Ministry further informs that Grenada is not in a position
to send an Ambassador at this time, and consequently, Ms.
Patricia Clarke will be appointed Charge d'Affaires ad interim.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Grenada avails itself of this
opportunity to renew to the Embassy of the United States of
America the assurances of its highest consideration.
