Philipsburg:--- Prime Minister of St. Maarten Sarah Wescot Williams defused the rumors that claim the current coalition government is in trouble and sooner or later the government of St. Maarten will fall. Wescot Williams said that she is part of the coalition and she has no knowledge of what is the media and what is rumored in the community.
"At this stage I know the dynamics of politics." When asked by reporters during the Council of Ministers' weekly press briefing if she was secure in her position as Prime Minister, Wescot Williams made clear that being Prime Minister of St. Maarten is not about her security instead it's about the people of St. Maarten and that she said is much more than "lip service, it is what is shown and done for the people."
Wescot Williams said the last time the coalition met was in September, she further explained that most of the time these meetings are called they have to be cancelled because some of the parties that make up the coalition are not on the island.
When asked by SMN News should the government of St. Maarten fall if she (Democratic Party) would entertain forming another coalition or if she as Prime Minister of St. Maarten would decide to call for a new election. Prime Minister Wescot Williams said that it is too premature to answer such question regarding the calling of a new election for St. Maarten.
