The Vice President of Guyana reaffirmed his government’s position regarding the territorial dispute with Venezuela over the Essequibo region, emphasizing that Venezuela’s appointment of a governor for this area constitutes a violation of the resolutions of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the Argyle Treaty.
The territorial dispute between Venezuela and Guyana has reached a new critical point following a complaint by Guyanese President Irfaan Ali about the incursion of a Venezuelan military vessel into waters that Guyana considers its own. The incident has sparked a strong diplomatic reaction and reignited historical tensions between the two countries over the Esequibo territory, which is currently under dispute in a case before the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
