Private Sector Commission Commends U.S. Commitment to Guyana’s Security and Investment Climate
Mar 31, 2025
Dear Editor
The Private Sector Commission (PSC) of Guyana joins with the unanimous welcome by the people of Guyana accorded the recent visit of United States Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, to Guyana.
The Private Sector Commission (PSC) also welcomes the unequivocal commitment expressedby the Secretary of State in support of the maintenance and security of the economic stability of Guyana. The Secretary of State has reaffirmed the determined position of the United States of America against any and all aggressive threats towards Guyana’s territorial integrity, thereby enhancing and reinforcing the confidence of investors and the business community in our country.
The Private Sector Commission (PSC), at this time, when the Nicolas Maduro regime has openly threatened the annexation of the Essequibo region of Guyana, more than welcomes the unmistakable warning of Secretary Rubio to the Maduro regime of the serious consequences of any hostile actions against Guyana or ExxonMobil’s operations within Guyana’s territorial waters. The PSC acknowledges the strategic importance of these assurances, as they provide much-needed security guarantees to businesses operating in the country and further strengthen investor confidence.
The PSC further welcomes Secretary Rubio’s undertaking to raise the Caribbean’s concerns with regard to the United States’ proposed trade measures on Chinese-built vessels. The PSC appreciates his pledge to engage with U.S. trade policy officials to ensure that the potential economic impact on Caribbean nations, including Guyana, is taken into consideration. We believe that this continuing dialogue is crucial in protecting the economic interests of small developing states that rely on international trade.
The PSC remains committed to fostering a business environment that is secure, competitive, and attractive to both local and foreign investors. We stand in support of the Government of Guyana’s continued efforts to engage international allies in matters of economic and national Security.
Sincerely
Private Sector Commission of Guyana Ltd.
