Guyana, Suriname diplomats meet amid border dispute tensions

Guyana's foreign affairs minister, Hugh Todd, has met with Suriname's ambassador to Guyana, Liselle Blankendal, a few days after Paramaribo sent a protest note to Georgetown following reports that Guyana wants to develop in the disputed border area between the two countries.

Guyana's President, Irfaan Ali, has said his administration will harden the airstrip in 'Camp Jaguar.'.

A statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Todd met with the Surinamese diplomat yesterday, during which time he outlined Guyana's national policy framework that addresses the provision of social services and other emergency relief services to remote communities within Guyana's territory.
