The Mercelina cabinet is the 11th Council of Ministers of Sint Maarten headed by Prime Minister Luc Mercelina. It was installed by Governor Ajamu Baly on 3 May 2024.[1][2]
Formation of the cabinet began after the general elections held on 11 January 2024. The cabinet is a coalition of four parties known as the 2x4 coalition:[3] Unified Resilient St. Maarten Movement, Democratic Party, Party for Progress, Nation Opportunity Wealth.[4][5] The cabinet fell after only 18 days when Nation Opportunity Wealth MP Kevin Maingrette resigned from his party and left the coalition to join the opposition. This crossing the floor cost the coalition its majority, leading Mercelina to dissolve parliament and call snap elections.[6] However, on 27 May, Maingrette withdrew his support for the opposition and expressed support for the Mercelina administration again despite still sitting as an independent.[7] However, the elections remained scheduled.[8]
