PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has extended warm congratulations to President, Dr Mohamed Irfaan Ali on his re-election as Head of State of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, describing his People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) victory in the September 1 General and Regional Elections as a decisive endorsement by the Guyanese people.
In a statement on Saturday, Persad-Bissessar also commended all political parties for their responsible participation in the electoral process and praised Guyanese citizens for demonstrating discipline and civic responsibility. She noted that their peaceful conduct reinforced Guyana’s strong democratic tradition.

Highlighting the deep ties between the two nations, the Prime Minister said Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana share a relationship rooted in family, commerce, culture, and enduring friendship. At a time when Guyana faces renewed threats to its territorial integrity, she stressed that the bonds of unity across the Caribbean assume even greater significance.
“These challenges remind us that sovereignty, democracy, and peace cannot be taken for granted, and that as Caribbean people we must remain united and vigilant in their defense,” Persad-Bissessar stated.

She underscored the importance of co-operation within CARICOM, noting that Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana have long worked together to advance food and energy security, expand trade and deepen regional integration. That solidarity, she said, will remain a guiding principle as the Caribbean confronts new opportunities and challenges.
“As Prime Minister, I reaffirm my government’s steadfast commitment to strengthening this partnership,” she affirmed. “Trinidad and Tobago will work closely with President Ali and his new government to ensure that our friendship not only endures but flourishes, bringing greater prosperity, resilience, and unity to our peoples, while amplifying our region’s collective voice on the global stage.”

Persad-Bissessar concluded by wishing President Ali and his incoming administration every success in their new mandate, expressing hope that wisdom, courage, and resilience will guide their leadership in advancing the welfare of Guyana’s people and the progress of the wider Caribbean community.
