Mohamed Irfaan Ali is a Guyanese politician serving as the tenth and current president of Guyana since 2020. A member of the People's Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C), he previously served as the minister of Housing and Water from 2009 to 2015. He is the first Muslim to hold the office, and is the second Muslim head of state in the Americas after Noor Hassanali of Trinidad and Tobago.
“He (Imam Shaheed Mohamed) was instrumental in building the (Queenstown) mosque. He took from his pocket and asked the Muslim community to donate so that the mosque could have been completed. The Muslim community, matter in fact, the community at large is poorer without him.”
“Our first line of defense is diplomacy. But we are also preparing for the worst case scenario ... We are preparing with our allies, with our friends, to ensure that we are in a position to defend what is ours.”
“I have made it very clear that on the issue of the border controversy (with Venezuela), Guyana's position is non-negotiable.”
“We are on the right side of international law, on the right side of ethics and on the right side of history.”
“I have already made it clear that the ICJ (International Court of Justice) will determine the controversy surrounding the borders of Guyana and Venezuela. We are firm on this matter and it will not be open for discussion.”
