A palatial estate in the Caribbean was listed for a whopping $200 million today, making it the most expensive home to ever hit the market in the region and one of the priciest homes for sale in the entire world. The Terraces, as the estate is called, spans over 17 acres and nine structures. It's located on the small private island of Mustique which lies in the southern Caribbean nation of St. Vincent and the Grenadines north of Trinidad and Tobagos and about 45 minutes west of Barbados by private plane. "The Terraces in Mustique is the most expensive single residential home to publicly come to the open market in the Caribbean region," said Edward de Mallet Morgan, head of international super-prime sales at Knight Frank, who represents the mega-listing.

BUENOS AIRES, Jan 24 (Reuters) - Countries from Latin America and the Caribbean on Tuesday called for more international funding in the region following economic and climate crises, in a final declaration after a summit held in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires. The 111-point "Declaration of Buenos Aires" from the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States' (CELAC) seventh summit described how effects of COVID-19, climate change and the war in Ukraine had rippled across the region. "We express our concern that several countries emerged from the pandemic with higher levels of public debt," it said. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro sent a recorded message saying he had chosen not to attend due to "permanent conspiracies, the permanent threat, calculated ambushes."

Donald Trump owed $19.8 million to South Korean firm Daewoo while president, according to Forbes. Trump acted with some urgency to pay off the debt after becoming president, Forbes said, after the debt remained more or less static between 2011 and 2016. Daewoo was the only South Korean company allowed to operate in North Korea during the 1990s. The debt stemmed from "an agreement Trump struck to share some of his licensing fees with Daewoo," Forbes reported. Trump frequently bragged about his close relationship with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un while president, and held two summits with the leader.
