Two U.S. military aircraft conducted a coordinated flyover during the inauguration of Guyanese President Irfaan Ali's second term on Sunday, an event the U.S. Embassy in Georgetown described as a demonstration of "full solidarity" with the people of Guyana. The episode took place as tensions between the U.S. and neighboring Venezuela remain at an all time high.
"Today, two U.S. AV-8B Harrier II aircraft took part in a closely coordinated flyover during President Ali's inauguration," said the U.S. embassy in Guyana through a statement on its X account. "The flyover symbolizes our full solidarity with the people of Guyana as we advance our shared goals of peace, prosperity and regional security."
