About
Guyana is a South American nation mentioned in several recent news articles. It is the origin point for sloths that were intended for a Florida tourist attraction, where many died. Guyana also served as a transit point for Brazil's former intelligence chief, Alexandre Ramagem, who fled there after being convicted in Brazil for involvement in a coup plot, before boarding a flight to the US. Ramagem was later detained and then freed in the US. Finally, Guyana is the location of the Stabroek News, a newspaper that recently closed after 39 years due to the shift to social media. These events highlight Guyana's role in international wildlife trade, as a point of transit for individuals fleeing legal consequences, and the challenges faced by traditional media in the digital age.
