Gov’t optimistic Guyana, Venezuela issue can be resolved diplomatically

Mar 12, 2015 News

The relationship between Guyana and Venezuela has remained healthy, notwithstanding the ups and downs related to the issue of the 1999 Arbitral Award.
Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon, in addressing the media yesterday at his weekly post-Cabinet press briefing, reiterated that both nations have sought specific mechanisms not to have the controversy impact unnecessarily on the conduct of bilateral relationships.
“This has been the enlightened approach by the then President (Bharrat) Jagdeo and former President of Venezuela Hugo Chavez”.  It is on this and other initiatives taken subsequently, Dr. Luncheon said, that both the earlier challenge to the status quo and the latest one, that despite those, the relationship between the two countries continues to remain healthy.
This sentiment, he added, exists in the administration that the differences can, via diplomacy, be “handled adequately without any injury to the existing relationship”.
Guyana’s Spanish-speaking neighbour had recently voiced its official disapproval of exploratory drilling operations which recently started offshore Guyana’s territorial waters, by US Oil Exploration giant, ExxonMobil.
