With the donation of 80,000 Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines from the Indian government, Guyana’s government immunization campaign against the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is expected to get a major boost.

However, nothing in life is for free and the Indian government is expecting short-term oil contracts from the government of Guyana in return for the vaccines given.

The Indian government is looking to diversify its crude oil import strategy in the face of rising crude oil prices, which are affecting the prices of gasoline and diesel. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas in India had begun talks with Guyana and Mexico about short-term oil contracts, which will help the Indian economy to offset the high-priced long-term contracts that were previously in place. These talks came amid India’s purported donation of vaccines to the Guyana government with expected kickbacks in oil contracts.

India is 86% dependent on crude import and the Indian crude basket is a little above $61 per barrel. Brent prices have soared to $70 per barrel and it constitutes almost 75% of the Indian crude basket. The Indian crude was priced at $20 per barrel in April 2020 when the demand was at its lowest low due to coronavirus-led lockdown. The central and state governments increased taxes on petroleum products like petrol and diesel which is now hurting consumers with an increase in crude prices.

Wow. How will Maharaja Jagdeo handle this? Will they have to get the US involved? Lots of action ahead.

Negotiations are going on.  It would depend on what India is asking for and how much they are prepared to pay.

Sheer nonsense! If this was accepted as a gift it should be handled as such. Personally, I would send the shit back seeing it does more harm than good now that deaths and other illnesses are being shown to occur after its use.

They haven't used it as yet. So stop your nonsense. You hate Indians and the PPP, you don't have to be dogmatic about it.

Is this a quid pro quo arrangement?  The evidence seems to suggest it is not.  India has been making donations of vaccines to several countries, eg., Barbados.  What are they negotiating with that country?  If India wants to negotiate oil contracts they will do so at market prices.  The donations and possible contracts are not directly linked.

Guyana to get help from Japan in Covid-19 fight

The Government of Japan is expected to make a donation to Guyana to aid in the country’s fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.

Health Minister Dr Frank Anthony on Wednesday explained that the aid will come in the form of equipment such as x-rays and ultrasound machines. He did not disclose how many such equipment will be delivered.

β€œThey [Japan] had put out a β€˜call’, so to speak, to different countries. And we have responded and we put up a list of things that would help us in our response to Covid and our understanding is that they’ve agreed with the list and we are expecting that items would be coming into Guyana shortly,” the Health Minister explained.

He added that Guyana’s list focused on diagnostic equipment. β€œWe need these tools to be able to see what’s going on with people’s lungs and so forth,” he noted.

Guyana has received assistance and support from several bilateral partners to aid in its fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.

Most recently, the country has received donations of vaccines from Barbados, China, and India.
