Kaieteur News – President Irfaan Ali on Monday accepted Letters of Credence from the new United States of America (USA) Ambassador to Guyana, Ms Nicole D. Theriot, at the Office of the President on Shiv Chanderpaul Drive, Georgetown.
In a meeting with the new Ambassador, President Ali highlighted that Guyana and the U.S share important commitments in global issues that go beyond projects and include democracy, the rule of law, and international peace, among others. He also noted that enhancing cooperation between the two countries, forging a deeper relationship, and positioning them within the regional context are paramount. In emphasising Guyana’s vision, the head-of-state said that Guyana is developing a platform through which the country will become a global leader in food, climate and energy security.
US President Joe Biden had nominated Theriot as U.S. Ambassador to Guyana on September 7, 2022, and she was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on July 27, 2023.
Ambassador Theriot served until recently as the Consul General at the U.S. Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan. She previously served as Deputy Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Prior to that, she was Director for Immigration and Visa Security at the National Security Council in the White House.
A career member of the Senior Foreign Service, Ambassador Theriot has been with the U.S. Department of State since 1999, and has also served overseas in Morocco, Germany, Pakistan, Iraq, France, Nigeria, Canada, and Barbados. She has received numerous U.S. Department of State awards, including two Senior Foreign Service Performance awards.
Ambassador Theriot said, “It is a great honour to serve as Ambassador to the Co-operative Republic of Guyana and as the U.S. representative to the Caribbean Community. I look forward to working with President Ali and the people of Guyana to advance the goal of a prosperous and safe Guyana.”
