Opposition Leader Aubrey Norton on Thursday said that the interpretation of a recent tweet by US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, that he must be more constructive is wrong.
During his weekly press conference, Stabroek News questioned Norton about the tweet from Blinken following a meeting between the two. The tweet coming from Blinken stated “While visiting Georgetown, I met with Guyanese opposition leader Aubrey Norton and learned about his vision for Guyana. Constructive opposition is essential to a vibrant and stable democracy.”
Asked about some interpreting the tweet as a call for more constructive opposition from him and how he would respond to that, Norton said, that the interpretation is “wrong” adding “You weren’t a part of the meeting so you wouldn’t understand the vicissitudes of it”, he said.
