description On May 26, 1998, Trinidad and Tobago denounced the First Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the American Convention on Human Rights--a regional human rights agreement, which also creates an individual right of petition for citizens of state parties.
