Georgetown : Guyana's Ambassador to the United States, Bayney Karran, has been accredited, on a non-resident basis, as this country's Ambassador to Mexico.
The President of Mexico, Mr. Enrique Pena Nieto, accepted Ambassador Karran's credentials at the Presidential Palace in Mexico City on February 14, 2014 and expressed the wish that the new diplomatic appointment would serve to strengthen the good relations between Guyana and Mexico.
Ambassador Karran indicated to President Nieto that he was honoured to be accredited to Mexico, a country whose history and culture had so enriched the world and which is of such importance to regional and global affairs. He pledged to improve upon the already warm and friendly relations existing between the two countries during his tour of duty.
The Ambassador cited a number of recent examples of significantly strengthened bilateral ties, such as cooperation in technical and language training as well as the fact that a Mexican company is currently the largest private employer in Guyana.
The Guyanese envoy also pointed to the existing scope for bolstering relations between CARICOM and Mexico, in addition to increasing upon the already good level of cooperation in other multilateral bodies such as CELAC, the OAS and the ACS.
President Nieto underscored his Government's will to intensify relations with Guyana in the areas of political consultations, economic cooperation as well as cultural affairs and pledged its cooperation in this regard.
Following the accreditation ceremony, the Ambassador was saluted by a military guard of honour and made a statement to the Mexican press conveying good wishes to the Government and people of Mexico from the Government and people of Guyana.
