Diplomats back non-violence as Venezuela, Guyana talk over border dispute

BRASILIA (Reuters) -Talks over a territorial dispute pitting Venezuela against Guyana yielded commitments on Thursday to avoid violence or threats, after Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro revived claims over an oil-rich region on their shared border.

The dispute centers on Esequibo, a 160,000 square kilometer (61,800 sq mile) region that is mostly thick jungle but also where in recent years massive amounts of oil and gas have been found.

The top diplomats from both South American nations held talks hosted by Brazil, pledging to use diplomacy to settle differences.

I like the path these two countries decided to take in December. It sounds like the best way to handle disputes over oil and/or colonial borders. [Leaders of Venezuela and Guyana agree to avoid use of force in land dispute CNN]

I am totally glad they are still on it.

Oil has been a disaster for South American politics.
