Bilateral political agendas, trade relations, cooperation in multilateral fora and preparation of the EU-CELAC summit in July are topics to be discussed this week when the Deputy Secretary General of the European External Action Service, Helena KÖNIG, visits Guyana. KÖNIG will be here from March 15-17.
During her visit she will meet with President Dr Irfaan Ali and members of the cabinet where discussions will be centered on the long-time bilateral relations between the EU and Guyana.
She will also interact with civil society and will visit one of the projects being executed under the EU funded Spotlight Initiative.
Ms KÖNIG, who has a background in trade, will also meet with members of the private sector and business community with the aim of fast-tracking the establishment of a full-fledged EU/Guyana chamber of commerce.
Ms KÖNIG’s arrival in Guyana is a continuation of a visit to Barbados and St Vincent. She will end her Caribbean tour with a visit to Suriname after Guyana.
