President Irfaan Ali on Tuesday lauded the drive and determination of the Republic of Chile, saying that it stands as a proud democracy and as one of the more stable and prosperous nations on the continent.
“We salute the many achievements of the Chilean people and wish it continued success in the future,” Ali was quoted as saying by the Office of the President at Chile’s 212th Independence anniversary celebration held on Tuesday evening at the Marriott Hotel in Georgetown.
Ali noted that Guyana and Chile have maintained “excellent relations” since the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1971 and have partnered in areas of tangible importance.
