Five days before President David Granger acceded to the GECOM declaration that his coalition had lost the 2020 General Elections, the US White House had told the Private Sector Commission (PSC) it was preparing to institute economic sanctions against persons here, according to National Security Advisor and former PSC Chairman Gerry Gouveia.
According to Gouveia, himself, current Deputy Ambassador to the US, Zulfikar Ally and now Minister in the Ministry of Public Works, Deodat Indar who were then part of the PSC’s governance committee, kept the United States updated on elections events here and were called to a virtual meeting to be briefed by the White House on proposed sanctions, shortly before Granger acceded.
