Guyana continues to see the United States of America as a trusted partner with shared values, mutual trust and friendship.
This was affirmed by President Dr. Irfaan Ali following the signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed at enhancing security cooperation between Guyana and the US on Thursday. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Guyana’s Foreign Affairs Minister Hugh Todd signed the agreement, which outlines a framework to address security challenges such as narcotics trafficking, transnational organised crime, and broader security. “The best of partnerships are those built on shared values, mutual trust, and a commitment to the Rule of Law and International Order. This is what underpins our bilateral relationship,” President Ali said, adding: “Our partnership and joint commitment to the safeguard of this region from every disruptive force is key to the maintenance of democracy, and an adherence to the Rule of Law.” The agreement also allows for greater cooperation in trade, energy, human capital development, and infrastructure.
