Fuck Exxon indeed.

But also massively fuck Venezuela for threatening/borderline attempting to invade in the first place.

Oh most definitely, Venezuela I’d deserving of much ire for this bullshit… but Exxon is going to give recognition for the false territorial claims.

This is Exxon on Guyanas side, the ones with the legitimate claim.

The issue is Venezuela is not going to be happy with this move and it could unravel the peace talks.

Do you think that if Venezuela asked nicely Exxon would back down? Like with a beautiful letter?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

ExxonMobil has insisted it will explore for oil in a region bitterly contested by Guyana and Venezuela, despite the dangers that the move is likely to escalate tensions between the two South American neighbors.

Relations between the two countries have reached an all-time low in recent months following a series of announcements by the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, suggesting that he could take the Essequibo region by force.

Leaders across South America are trying to calm regional tensions and fears that Maduro could annex the vast swath of mineral-rich rainforest but Exxon’s announcement threatens to fire up the disagreement once more.

“Venezuela’s neighbors, led by Brazil, have been working hard for the last three months to lower tensions and ensure good communication between the two governments.

The matter is currently being reviewed in the international court of justice but Maduro’s decision to take up the decades-old territorial dispute has been described as an attempt to whip up patriotic support at home.

The Venezuelan strongman has been the face of a lengthy national propaganda campaign and claims that his country voted in December for Venezuela to disregard The Hague and take back Essequibo, which makes up two-thirds of Guyanese territory.
