The Guyana De­fence Force (GDF) has signed a Mem­o­ran­dum of Un­der­stand­ing (MoU) with the Na­tion­al De­fense Min­istry of the Re­pub­lic of Colom­bia to en­hance col­lab­o­ra­tion in aer­i­al sur­veil­lance and boost re­gion­al se­cu­ri­ty.

In a state­ment, the GDF said that the agree­ment will seeks to strength­en co­op­er­a­tion in mon­i­tor­ing and safe­guard­ing air­space, with a fo­cus on coun­ter­ing il­lic­it ac­tiv­i­ties and im­prov­ing sit­u­a­tion­al aware­ness.

Un­der the MoU, both coun­tries will share ex­per­tise and build ca­pac­i­ty to bet­ter de­tect and re­spond to threats.
