The Miami Herald has reported that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio will travel next week to Guyana as part of a regional tour that will include Jamaica and Suriname.
If Rubio visits Guyana it would be the third by a US Secretary of State in less than five years following the visits of Mike Pompeo during the first Trump administration, followed by Antony Blinken under the Biden administration.
The return of deportees and the crisis in relations between Guyana and Venezuela would be at the top of the agenda of any talks with Rubio.
The Miami Herald noted that last month, during a summit in Barbados, CARICOM Chair, Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley, has extended an invitation to President Donald Trump to visit the Caribbean, adding that the leaders also hoped to meet with senior administration officials.
Soon after, Trump's special envoy to the Americas confirmed to the Miami Herald that both he and Rubio were planning to visit soon.
