	globalinfo.org - Jul 8, GRENADA (#30954)

		Leaders of the English-speaking CARICOM have refused to grant Latortue legitimacy since he was installed soon after former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was flown out of Haiti on a U.S.-chartered jet Feb. 29, and the summit here exposed their public split on the matter.
		But according to Grenada's leader Mitchell, just as his own island had a brief flirtation with left-wing politics between 1979-83, he believes the time has come to change policies regarding Haiti.
