For­mer en­er­gy min­is­ter Stu­art Young has re­ject­ed claims by the cur­rent ad­min­is­tra­tion that it has bro­ken new ground in re­gion­al en­er­gy co­op­er­a­tion, ar­gu­ing that all sub­stan­tive ini­tia­tives with Guyana and Suri­name were ad­vanced un­der the pre­vi­ous Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment gov­ern­ment.

Young main­tained that since the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress ad­min­is­tra­tion led by Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar took of­fice in May 2025, there have been no new achieve­ments in the en­er­gy sec­tor.
