Dear Editor,   Mr Denis Kopyl, Press Attaché at the Russian Embassy in Georgetown, in his latest letter, ‘Statements from Kiev and the West about Russia being behind the eastern Ukraine protests are groundless,’ (SN, April 20), is an obvious attempt to deflect sole blame from Russia for the Ukraine crisis, to which the US is now responding by sending troops to neighbouring states.

Dear Editor, The death of Professor Girvan and former President ANR Robinson simultaneously continues a trend for some notable Caribbean politicians to go in pairs.

Dear Editor, As a Guyanese of indigenous descent, it pains me to see Guyana’s first peoples being used as political pawns by the PPP/C regime.
