While the nation offers assistance to migrants, local authorities are closely monitoring any potential security risks from individuals who might enter Guyana, President Dr. Irfaan Ali stated on Monday.

Speaking to reporters outside of an event, the Head of State expressed worries that foreign security agents would invade Guyana by pretending to be refugees fleeing difficult living conditions abroad. But Dr. Ali claimed that the government is aware of that potential and as a result, keeps a system of active surveillance.

But even as he highlighted the local authorities’ focus on safety and security, Dr. Ali emphasised that the government is maintaining its international obligations that require Guyana’s support for people migrating due to harsh circumstances.
