-President says more investment coming for defence of country
The Guyana Defence Force (GDF) yesterday commissioned a hangar at the Eugene F. Correia International Airport (EFCIA), Ogle with President Irfaan Ali sending a message to Venezuela that while this country will never support war or aggression, it will invest in its military architecture to tackle threats.
“Even as we repose our confidence in the rule of international law and in the persuasiveness of diplomacy, we are not blind to the realities of the world we live in. A strong nation must have the means to deter and to identify threats. That is why we are investing in our Defence Force, not for war, not for aggression, but for protection, for development, and for national security,” the President told attendees at the commissioning of the GDF’s hangar at EFCIA.
