Russia is exploring the possibility of investing in the development of hydropower stations in Guyana.
This proclamation comes at a time when Russia and Guyana have enjoyed 45 years of diplomatic relations.
“We are looking forward to signing agreements on promotion and reciprocal protection of investments, mutual recognition of diplomas and cooperation between law enforcement agencies including counter-drug investigation and cooperation,” the statement noted.
The political cooperation between the Soviet Union and the newly independent South American nation developed rapidly throughout the years.
The Delegation of the Supreme Soviet visited Guyana in 1988.
On January 8, 1992, Guyana officially recognised the Russian Federation as the USSR’s successor. In 1995, the bilateral protocol on political consultation between the Foreign Ministers of both countries was signed. Since then, several rounds of talks have taken place, the latest – in October this year.

Guess that we do not want to see more of Russia in Guyana..............Rusal can be an experience which we can do without.
Rusal is a private company that the PPP got involved with. The Russian government is dealing with a new Guyanese government. You are far too quick to assume that the incompetence of the PPP when dealing with the Russians is the benchmark of what can be achieved by the AFC. Who in the PPP negotiated the Rusal contract? Now, there is your answer why it went belly up.

T, I thought that in 1970 - 1980's the PNC was governing Guyana when these agreements were signed, by the PNC, wasn't that so? Guyana was in the doldrum then........worst off than Haiti.

That is the motive of the article to highlight the days of the PNC rule under Burnham,the young ones in Guyana don't know that name,so the Guyana Times(PPP mouth piece)is on a mission to educate them,look out for more articles on Burnham,will it be effective the result will be in 2020.
Burnham dead 30 years ago. Dem young folks in Guyana don't know about those days under the PNC. Most of dem know of the days under de PPP/C.

All 13 yr old in May 2015 will attain voting age in 2020,so they will decide the faith of APNU/AFC,PPP can continue resurrect Burnham.
Wishful thinking. Russia has little excess capital to address its own internal needs. With sanctions on going it is being crippled financially. They did not diversify their economy and the total dependency on oil has them in a state of need that will continue for a long time.

That's the Western propaganda. Russia is the world's largest oil exporter and has been propping up the Syrian army financially. Russia's national debt is also far less than the US.
Russia might be moving next door to Venezuela. How will the Americans look at Russia expanding at their backdoor? Wasn't this why Jagan was overthrown and the PNC under Forbes was installed? The rest is history.

We live in a modern world where one can see the store shelves in Moscow. Oil has gone through the floor so it alone cannot support russia. Russia is half the size of the us and its economy less than a tenth of the US.

And you think the Russian government is showing you the pictures of their shelves? I bet the Russians see the ghettos of LA on their news.

Not sure what you mean, this will be all "organic" Russian, left pocket, right pocket and a nice performing Receivable!
FACT: In the entire English-speaking Caribbean, Russia chose Guyana to build its largest embassy during the previous PNC regime. The then Leader of the Opposition, Cheddi Jagan, said the Russian Embassy building was a "monument to Soviet-Guyanese friendship."
Today Russia maintains good relations with Guyana while having better relations with Venezuela. Russia is offering Guyana mini-hydropower plants while supplying Venezuela with fighter jets and helicopter gunships. Let's reflect on this.
Is that pocket billiards you playin deh Baseman?

Russians are chess players, they bombing the crap out of the Syrian opposition and leaving ISIS alone...for now. They are good friends with the Chavistas yet offer to build a hydro plant in the middle of the disputed territory. We in the US play muddled politics, they play"close to the chest" chess.

The West constantly puts it in the news that Russia is leaving isis alone. But that is not the view of the isis backers like Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Russia destroyed around 1000 isis vehicles in about 24 hours just a month or so ago. Because we in the West have no credible means to verify who the Russians are bombing, we are being told all sorts of lies about their operation in Syria.
But irrespective of that, all the terrorists in Syria are bad guys. So bombing the lot of them makes sense.
