Foreign Secretary Carl Greenidge yesterday confirmed that Guyana’s ambassador to Venezuela, Cheryl Miles, is among several envoys who have been recalled by President David Granger.

Speaking at a People’s National Congress Reform press conference at Congress Place, Greenidge told reporters that Miles “has been instructed to wrap up by the end of December.”

Stabroek News had previously reported that Miles and Guyana’s Ambassador to Switzerland John Ford, Ambassador to China Bayney Karran, High Commissioner to Canada Clarissa Riehl and High Commissioner to Trinidad and Tobago Bishwaishwar Ramsaroop-Maraj were being recalled by President Granger as part of an “organisational restructuring” of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
