Venezuela Denounces Fake News: The Truth About Military Presence in Essequibo Border Region

2024-02-10 22:13:36

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil, described as “fake news” the information according to which Venezuela has increased its military presence in the border region with Essequibo, a territory in dispute with Guyana.

“This insidious writing seeks to hide ExxonMobil’s interest in illegally seizing and exploiting a maritime area belonging to Venezuela and an undelimited sea with Guyana, as its president, Alistair Routledge, has recently revealed,” Gil said on his X social network account. .

The foreign minister accused the journalist of the American network CNN, Vasco Cotivio, of creating this false information and stated that “he already has a history of creating Fake News once morest Venezuela. Today, with Allegra Goodwin”, the latter also a journalist for the same network.

However, the Guyana government reacted to the information by questioning this alleged military mobilization.

Foreign Minister Gil also accused the technology company Maxar, which supposedly disclosed satellite images of the alleged deployment of Venezuelan troops in the area near Essequibo, of being a participant in the fabrication of “fake news.”

Gil accused the Maxar company of being a “prominent provider of intelligence for the US Department of Defense and transnational companies such as ExxonMobil.”

“Venezuela reserves all diplomatic actions and the use of all measures available within the framework of International Law, in order to guarantee its sovereignty both in the incontrovertibly Venezuelan area and in the maritime zone pending delimitation with Guyana,” concluded the head of Foreign Relations of the Venezuelan government.
