OAS to meet again on Guyana’s elections

Sir Ronald Sanders

The Permanent Council of the Organization of Ameri-can States (OAS) will meet again to discuss and possibly pass a resolution on the electoral situation in Guyana; once a final ruling in the current judicial matter is delivered.

This is according to Sir Ronald Sanders, the Antigua and Barbuda ambassador to the OAS, who explained in an invited comment to Stabroek News that the organization has not left the situation in abeyance.

“It is not a closed meeting…the Council can return to the matter…We did not hold a meeting before [last Tuesday] because the Caribbean Court of Justice was in session and then another matter was in the High Court. We did not wish to comment on a matter which was sub judice. We waited until the ruling to hold a meeting but the Secretary General had issued statements,” he reminded.
