President Irfaan Ali (left) yesterday accepted the Letters of Credence from the new Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Guyana, Walter Oostelbos at the Office of the President on Shiv Chanderpaul Drive.

A release from the Office of the President said that during the meeting discussions focused on the processing of Schengen visas in Guyana. The President told the ambassador that one of the biggest hindrances of doing business between Guyana and the EU is the visa processing procedure that requires Guyanese to travel to Suriname. This, he said, can be remedied if the same service provided in Suriname, can be provided here.

The President also noted that the two countries can leverage their partnership in key areas including agro-processing, food production and air transport.  (Office of the President photo)
