Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Georgetown on Tuesday for the final leg of his three-nation tour, where he received a special welcome from Guyana President Mohamed Irfaan Ali.

總理莫迪週二抵達喬治城，開始他的三國之行的最後一站，在那裡他受到了圭亞那總統穆罕默德·伊爾法安·阿里的特別歡迎。

This historic visit marks the first time an Indian Prime Minister has visited Guyana in 56 years, following Indira Gandhi's trip in 1968.

這次歷史性訪問標誌著印度總理繼英迪拉甘地1968年訪問圭亞那後56年來首次訪問圭亞那。

Guyana President Irfaan Ali, accompanied by Prime Minister Mark Anthony Phillips and senior cabinet ministers, personally welcomed PM Modi with a warm hug, signifying the deep ties between the two nations.

圭亞那總統伊爾法安·阿里在總理馬克·安東尼·菲利普斯和內閣高級部長陪同下親自熱情擁抱莫迪總理，標誌著兩國關係深厚。

"A special welcome! PM Narendra Modi lands in Georgetown on a State visit to Guyana. In a special gesture, the PM was warmly received by Guyana President Mohamed Irfaan Ali and PM Mark Anthony Phillips and was accorded a ceremonial welcome at the airport," the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a post.

「特別歡迎！莫迪總理抵達喬治敦對圭亞那進行國事訪問。總理受到了圭亞那總統穆罕默德·伊爾法恩·阿里和總理馬克·安東尼·菲利普斯的熱烈歡迎，並在機場受到了隆重的歡迎，」外交部（MEA）在一篇貼文中表示。

The primary focus of PM Modi’s visit is the India-CARICOM Summit, where he will co-chair discussions with 14 participating nations alongside Guyana’s President Ali and Grenada’s Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell. The summit highlights India's leadership as a voice for the Global South and its support for the Caribbean region's political and economic aspirations.

莫迪總理訪問的主要焦點是印度-加共體峰會，他將與圭亞那總統阿里和格林納達總理迪肯·米切爾一起共同主持與 14 個參會國的討論。此次峰會凸顯了印度作為全球南方代言人的領導地位及其對加勒比地區政治和經濟願望的支持。

CARICOM, the Caribbean Community, is a regional group of nations. The first India-CARICOM summit, held in 2019 during the UN General Assembly, saw India offering a $150 million credit line for climate change and renewable energy initiatives. This second summit seeks to deepen partnerships in trade, climate action, energy, and cultural exchange.

CARICOM（加勒比共同體）是一個區域性國家集團。首屆印度-加共體峰會於 2019 年聯合國大會期間舉行，印度為氣候變遷和再生能源倡議提供了 1.5 億美元的信貸額度。第二次高峰會旨在深化貿易、氣候行動、能源和文化交流方面的夥伴關係。

“India is an important global actor. Our Member States are keen to meet Prime Minister Modi and develop deeper technical relationships, deepen advocacy for small states in the international arena, and strengthen people-to-people ties,” said CARICOM Assistant Secretary-General Elizabeth Solomon.

「印度是重要的全球參與者。我們的成員國渴望與莫迪總理會面，發展更深入的技術關係，在國際舞台上加深對小國的宣傳，並加強民間聯繫，」加共體助理秘書長伊麗莎白·所羅門說。

Guyana, an emerging energy powerhouse with oil reserves estimated at over 11 billion barrels, is a key player in India's quest to diversify its energy sources. PM Modi is expected to discuss energy partnerships while highlighting the longstanding cultural and historic ties between the two nations.

圭亞那是一個新興能源大國，石油儲量估計超過 110 億桶，是印度尋求能源來源多元化的關鍵參與者。莫迪總理預計將討論能源夥伴關係，同時強調兩國之間長期的文化和歷史聯繫。

Guyana’s Indo-Guyanese population, making up 39.8 per cent of the country's citizens, forms the largest ethnic group. Many are descendants of Indian indentured labourers brought over by the British Raj in 1838. To honour this heritage, PM Modi will visit the Indian Arrival Monument, commemorating the arrival of the first ship carrying Indian labourers.

圭亞那的印度裔圭亞那人口占該國公民的39.8%，是最大的族群。許多人都是 1838 年英國殖民統治帶來的印度契約勞工的後裔。

During his visit, PM Modi will address Guyana’s Parliament, meet the Indian diaspora, and pay respects to one of the world’s oldest Indian communities outside India.

訪問期間，莫迪總理將在圭亞那議會發表講話，會見印度僑民，並向印度以外世界上最古老的印度社區之一致敬。

India has been a longstanding development partner for Guyana, providing assistance for several projects, including the $25 million National Cricket Stadium and the establishment of a Centre of Excellence in Information Technology (CEIT).

印度一直是圭亞那的長期發展夥伴，為多個項目提供援助，包括耗資2500萬美元的國家板球體育場和建立資訊技術卓越中心（CEIT）。

Trade between the two countries stood at $223.36 million in 2021-22, with energy products constituting a significant portion of Guyana’s exports to India.

2021-22年兩國之間的貿易額為2.2336億美元，其中能源產品佔圭亞那對印度出口的很大一部分。

The visit underscores PM Modi’s commitment to strengthening India's ties with Guyana and the broader Caribbean region while addressing global challenges such as energy security, climate change, and economic development.

這次訪問凸顯了莫迪總理致力於加強印度與圭亞那和更廣泛的加勒比地區的關係，同時應對能源安全、氣候變遷和經濟發展等全球挑戰。
