Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett, Guyana‘s ambassador to the UN, said this Thursday that the country will not use its position in the presidency of the UN Security Council to discuss the issue of diplomatic conflict with Venezuela through the Essequibo.
The official presented the work program for the current month, a topic in which the situation between both nations did not appear. According to Rodrigues-Birkett, Circumstances have changed since the end of last year.
For her, Guyana was trying to counteract “the worrying narratives” of Venezuela before the international community.
Guyana’s ambassador to the HIM celebrated the dialogue carried out last year between Nicolás Maduro and the Guyanese president, Irfaan Ali. He also highlighted that the border dispute is now in the hands of the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
On December 14, the representations of Venezuela and Guyana agreed not to threaten each other or use force in the territorial conflict, something that remains to this day.
“At this point, we do not believe it is an issue that we should bring back to the Council”said the diplomat.
Even, The ambassador recalled that Venezuela was one of the first countries to support the Guyanese candidacy to the UN Security Council.
