Guyana is now accepting third-country nationals being removed from the United States under a migration framework that has moved from quiet negotiations to implementation, but the Government is facing growing questions over how the deal was reached, how many people Guyana will receive and whether the public was adequately consulted.
The Government announced Saturday that it has finalised a temporary migration cooperation framework with Washington for the reception of a limited number of vetted, skilled and non-criminal third-country nationals.
The people involved are not Guyanese citizens. They are nationals of other countries being removed from the United States and temporarily transferred to Guyana while their immigration status is determined.
