Venezuela Rejects US Interference in Essequibo Dispute

On Tuesday, TelesurTV announced that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro rejected declarations from the new U.S. Ambassador Perry Holloway, regarding the dispute over the Essequibo region.

According to TelesurTV President Maduro said:

“United States, take your hands off of the Guyana Essequibo, ….We will not accept your interference any longer.”

Maduro’s comments came just a few hours after the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry expressed its strong opposition to recent statements from the U.S. ambassador in Guyana.

The text arguesthat Ambassador Holloway’s comments “are further evidence of intrusion on the part of the U.S. government in the issues that concern only Venezuela and Guyana, in their obsession to damage brotherly relations between the countries of the Caribbean.”

The criticism comes after Ambassador Holloway called on Venezuela to respect the 1899 decision over the territory. However, the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry responded that the parties responsible for that decision were “senior U.S. officials in collusion with right-wing mercenaries of the old British Empire.”
