Emmanuel Macron begins a two-day visit to Guyana on Monday, March 25. The French president is expected in Cayenne after a first visit in October 2017.

It comes one year to the day after the death, on March 25, 2023, of a GIGN gendarme, Arnaud Blanc, in an operation against illegal gold panning. He will make “announcements” on the fishing industry and decline a “certain number of very concrete actions” to combine ecology and economic growth.
