The Guyana Government yesterday pushed back against criticisms that it had deliberately singled out Trinidad and Tobago citizens for stricter entry requirements in retaliation for Port of Spain’s notice that only persons with WHO-approved COVID-19 vaccines could enter that country.
“The only reason TT was named in the order is because of its recent opening (of borders),” Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill in whose name the Gazetted order was signed, told Stabroek News when contacted.
He said that government will today issue a statement to explain the amendment.
