Joint Services recommit to safeguarding Guyana’s sovereignty

Aug 21, 2025 News

Kaieteur News – Against the background of recent criticisms, the Joint Services on Wednesday recommitted to stand on the frontlines of safeguarding this country’s sovereignty and ensuring the safety of every citizen.

“Every mission undertaken, whether defending borders, upholding the rule of law, or responding to national emergencies, is carried out with professionalism, integrity, and sacrifice,” the Joint Services said in a statement.

According to the Joint Services, recent comments in the public domain, including on social and traditional media, have sought to cast doubt on this commitment. “Such remarks overlook the dedication of the men and women in uniform who serve the country with impartiality and discipline,” the statement added.

The members of the Joint Services serve all Guyanese, without fear or favour, regardless of politics, religion, ethnicity, or social standing. This has always been and will remain a core component of the Joint Services as we continue to execute our mandate to serve our citizens. Stakeholders and commentators are encouraged to engage constructively, and to recognise that national security is a shared responsibility and a cornerstone of the nation’s independence and freedom.
