More than two decades after the Colombian Embassy was closed here, Georgetown and Bogota over the weekend discussed having one re-established and the prospects look favourable.
“They had economic problems which led to the closure and now they are discussing having a Colombian Embassy here again,” Minister of Foreign Affairs and acting Prime Minister Carl Greenidge told Stabroek News yesterday.
The Colombian Minister of Foreign Affairs, María Angela Holguín, was in Guyana on Saturday for bilateral discussions and Greenidge said that among the range of issues discussed, having an embassy here once again formed part of those talks.
