Unfortunately it’s the nature of dictators. When they start to feel under pressure because of the economy etc they point over there and say “that country is the reason we are struggling, we should take their stuff, everything will be better if we do.”

Unfortunately this the sort of thing the UN should be dealing with, but they can’t because of bureaucracy / corruption / incompetence, take your pick.

The oil-rich Essequibo region has been in dispute since the 19th Century when Guyana was a British colony.

Colour me surprised - those in power about to use their people as cannon fodder and cause untold suffering, all to feed their personal greed..

So, no peace at all costs and appeasing countries with irredentist claims in this case?

mwguy OP ,

We’ll see. I think the hope is that strong words and troop movements will make Venezuela reconsider it’s actions.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Brazil says that it is deploying troops along its border with Venezuela after the Venezuelan government announced plans to incorporate an area controlled by Guyana into its territory.

Venezuela renewed its land claims after offshore oil and gas reserves were discovered a few years ago.

While Guyana has its troops on high alert, the Brazilian army has said that it is moving more soldiers to the border city of Boa Vista, the capital of Roraima state, as well as bringing in more armed vehicles.

According to AFP news agency, Brazil’s army has said it is reinforcing its presence in the region as part of efforts to “guarantee the inviolability of the territory”.

A Guyanese army helicopter with seven people on board was reported missing near the Venezuelan border on Wednesday.

However, the Guyanese Chief of Staff, Omar Khan, said there was “no information suggesting Venezuela was involved”.
