This call should not be heeded
Dear Editor,
The putrid, anti-national call and stance taken and elaborated in the recital of measures to be first adopted, in order for a section of the population to show patriotic duty (if called upon) in the border controversy matter, (Guyana Standard October 31) conflicted with and flies in the face of the national position taken by both the government and opposition at their recent meeting.
This anti-position must be roundly and soundly condemned and the opposition must lead the condemnation rebuttal. Both sides agreed to collaborate and be united in our national efforts to protect our country and territorial integrity. There were no conditions attached for the support of the opposition. In fact, the opposition has always been very clear and unequivocal in its support of the government regarding the border controversy, regardless of its differences with the government.
For a provocateur to come now with an agenda laced with racist and political overtones is nothing short of seeking to divide our country, in the face of acute adversary. Given this position, we do not need Venezuela’s Maduro to divide us; we have our own Maduro. Maybe we might have to resort to the deployment of the Wagner Group if the anti-call is heeded.
Sincerely,
Shamshun Mohamed
