The persons who will form the joint commission to be established under the Declaration of Argyle for Dialogue and Peace between Guyana and Venezuela are in the process of being selected, as Takuba Lodge hailed Thursday’s meeting in St Vincent and the Grenadines as “mutually beneficial.”

Minister of Foreign Affairs Hugh Todd told Stabroek News yesterday that preparations will immediately begin to form the team for the commission and that they will also be attending the meeting to be held within three months in Brazil’s capital of Brasília.

This newspaper understands that President Irfaan Ali will soon hold a press conference on the meeting held last Thursday at the Argyle International Airport in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
