Brazilian naval vessels leave after brief friendship visit
THREE Brazilian naval vessels touring the Caribbean left Port Georgetown from the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Coast Guard wharf.
The Bracui, Goiana and Guanabara are on tour as part of operation Caribbean Express or ‘CARIBEX’ which began in March.
Their journey is aimed at promoting friendship and enhancing cooperation between Guyana and the other Caribbean countries and the Brazilian Defence Force and the Government, by extension, Warrant Officer Sergio Procheira told the media yesterday morning.
One hundred and sixteen Brazilian naval officers are on the three ships that arrived here late Thursday evening and they were joined by GDF ranks, Lieutenant Andre Cush and Able Rating Kenroy on their departure.
The two will be participating in instruction and other training activities until the ships’ final destination in Natal on June 9.
The boats are due to make calls in Port of Spain, San Juan, Havana and La Guaira, Procheira said.
He disclosed that they were in Trinidad and Tobago for the Fifth Summit of the Americas from April 17-19, assisting with security.
According to him, this is not the first time that the Brazilian Defence Force has collaborated with other military within the Caribbean and the collaboration will continue.
Brazilian Ambassador to Guyana, Mr. Arthur Meyers was warmly received on board the ships and was taken all over them.
Later, he said the series of tours by the vessels have been an annual occurrence since 2006 and this is the second call in Guyana, following that in 2007.
Meyers said two of the ships were built in Brazil while the third, Bracui was a British flagship.
He explained that the two Guyanese, the first to be invited, will accompany the Brazilians on the final leg of their trip to participate in a training cooperation programme between the armed forces of Brazil and Guyana and will remain in the former for about seven to ten days.
Brazil has provided military assistance to Guyana on a number of occasions over the years, in the form of warfare training and logistics and bilateral relations have heightened in recent years, as a result of Brazil's new South-South foreign policy towards strengthening South American integration.
