Foreign Minister leads delegation to Suriname to advance to SDCP

PRESS RELEASE

The Honourable Hugh Todd, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation today led an official delegation to Suriname to further discuss advancing areas of cooperation through the Strategic Dialogue and Cooperation Platform (SCDP). The delegation included the Honourable Juan Edghill, Minister of Public Works and the Honourable Zulfikar Mustapha, Minister of Agriculture.

The Strategic Dialogue and Cooperation Platform was signed by the two Heads of State last November, during an Official State visit to Suriname. Today’s working visit served to further streamline plans between the Government of Guyana and Suriname.

The Ministers discussed several areas within the framework of the SDCP, among those were infrastructure and transport, agriculture and security. Since the signing of the SDCP both countries have been actively engaging to advance the programme through the establishment of several working groups including infrastructure, agriculture, security, health and trade.

The meeting paves the way in preparation of an Official State visit of the President of Suriname H.E Chan Santoki to Guyana.
