GEORGETOWN: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday shared a positive update from his stopover in Guyana, highlighting the growing synergy between India and the Caribbean nation in the healthcare sector.
During a brief but productive stopover in Georgetown, Jaishankar met with Guyana's Minister of Health Dr. Frank Anthony. The meeting served as a pivotal moment to review the expanding map of medical and pharmaceutical collaboration between the two nations.
