We express our appreciation to the many brave emergency responders working tirelessly to save lives and restore a measure of normalcy.
Be assured that the people of Guyana stand with the people of the United States in this hour of tragedy. May the government and the American people summon the strength to overcome this enormous tragedy, and may they comfort and embrace all those in mourning,” the president wrote on his Facebook page.
