The Venezuelan VP in a post following the ICJ ruling last Friday said Guyana went to the ICJ for ‘wool and came out sheared’ (GSN December 1). It has to be asked how else is wool secured if not through the shearing process? How ridiculous is that?
Likewise. the referral to the UN agency of a complaint by two Venezuelan NGOs of Guyana using children to defend and denounce Venezuela’s claim to Essequibo as warmongering and unethical (SN Editorial Dec 3), constitutes interference in our internal affairs and seems a feeble attempt at clutching at straws. There is no warmongering coming from our side of the border.
Guyana can make a similar complaint to the UN agency for children against Venezuela, who are taught the ridiculous mantra Essequibo belongs to Venezuela and the Venezuela sun rises in the Essequibo. Attaching ridiculous labels does not change the fact: Essequibo belongs to Guyana. Always has, always will. The VP and NGOs better understand that.
Sincerely,
Shamshun Mohamed
