United States Secretary of State Michael Pompeo arrived in Guyana yesterday afternoon, the second stop in his South American tour of four countries and last evening attended a dinner with President Irfaan Ali.
Under heavy security, Pompeo was whisked away to the capital from the Cheddi Jagan Inter-national Airport (CJIA) shortly after his plane landed around 5pm. The first time on Guyana soil for any US Secretary of State, Pompeo was welcomed by Minister of Foreign Affairs Hugh Todd and US Ambassador to Guyana Sarah Ann Lynch.
