Guyana has requested a royal apology and reparations from King Charles ahead of his pending visit to the Caribbean. The demand comes as the King prepares to tour the region, which has a history of British colonialism. Meanwhile, new Guyanese crude oil is expected to boost shipments of VLCCs and Suezmaxes to Asia. Additionally, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met with Guyana's President Irfaan Ali during a brief visit.
