Venezuela rejects Guyana’s lies: «Will become their own torment»

The Venezuelan government rejected, in a statement, Guyana’s previous statements regarding the controversy over the Essequibo region, in which it flatly denies its involvement in planning a «false flag» operation against the Venezuelan nation.

In context, last weekend, Executive Vice President Delcy Rodríguez denounced a covert operation by Guyana regarding the participation of the ExxonMobil oil company, led by US mercenary Erik Prince, who arrived in Latin America in support of a security agreement with Ecuador.

Rodríguez stated that this operation by Guyana is in complicity with the White House to attack the ExxonMobil platform, which operates in waters yet to be delimited with Guyana.

Consequently, the text of the communiqué also describes that «Irfaan Ali, the Zelensky of the Caribbean, is showing desperation and is blatantly lying» after Venezuela revealed and warned about a «False Flag» plan.

According to the communiqué, it also denounces the statements given by Guyana, after it described President Nicolás Maduro’s statements regarding the 1966 Geneva Agreement as «distorted.»

Furthermore, it states that «Guyana continues its desperate and irresponsible attempt to distort and disregard the legally binding obligations assumed by the signing of the 1966 Geneva Agreement» and emphasizes that this problem «must be resolved through a practical and mutually acceptable arrangement between the parties.»

It also specifies that «Guyana not only sabotaged the good offices process carried out by the UN Secretary-General» in accordance with the aforementioned 1966 agreement, «but also exerted undue and illegitimate pressure on the Secretary-General to have the dispute brought irregularly before the International Court of Justice, in violation of the UN Charter itself.»

«Venezuela will never recognize any decision emanating from that body regarding the territorial dispute surrounding Guayana Esequiba. (…) Guyana’s lies will become their own torment,» reads the communiqué.
