Venezuela Threatens to Absorb Most of Neighbor Guyana

Venezuela is threatening to absorb most of small neighbor Guyana

The 61,600-square-mile (159,500-square-kilometer) area accounts for two-thirds of Guyana. Yet, Venezuela has always considered Essequibo as its own because the region was within its boundaries during the Spanish colonial period, and it has long disputed the border decided by international arbitrators in 1899, when Guyana was still a British colony.

Venezuela’s commitment to pursue the territorial claim has fluctuated over the years. Its interest piqued again in 2015 when ExxonMobil announced it had found oil in commercial quantities off the Essequibo coast.

Venezuela is having a referendum on whether to 're-take' the Essebiquo region, against its will.

Maduro is a bad guy and I wouldn't be surprised if he occupies this area against its will.

guessing the UN will do nothing, as usual.

this will be one issue that our military will get involved with 100%. However it does go to show you how weak we appear now if Venezuela is trying to get some. Anyway, Guyana has some huge proven oil reserves and I doubt they will be just handed over to VZ.

Lol they're making a referendum and elaborating the results themselves.There is no democracy here in Venezuela.Anytime you hear some democratic process going on it is either made by opposition like the primaries or complete propaganda machinery from the PSUV
