GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The special advisor for the Western Hemisphere to US Vice President Kamala Harris, Joseph Salazar, and the Deputy Director for the Western Hemisphere Affairs (WHA), Office of Caribbean Affairs, Michael Taylor, are here in Guyana for a three-day official visit that started on Sunday and will end on Tuesday, March 14.
During their visit, the delegation will meet with government officials, business leaders, and non-governmental organizations leading on governance, security, and prosperity issues.
Discussions will also include topics of mutual interest, such as food security, energy security, and the U.S.-Caribbean Partnership to Address the Climate Crisis 2030 (PACC 2030).
In June 2022, Harris launched PACC 2030, and since then, the United States has been working with Caribbean nations to develop wide-ranging, long-term energy security and climate resilience solutions.
Since the Summit of the Americas, Harris has met with six Caribbean heads of state, including President Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali, building on the United States partnership with Caribbean governments to defend our shared values and improve Caribbean resilience in all aspects – economic, security, and democracy.
