From the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the Venezuelan lawyer, Antonio Remiro Brotóns, an expert in international law, reaffirms the incapacity of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana to resort to the ICJ in order to revive the Arbitral Award of 1899, which was annulled by consensus by both parties, Caracas and Georgetown, during the signing of the Geneva Agreement of 1966.

This was stated by the Foreign Minister of the Republic, Yván Gil, in his account on the social network Telegram, in which he published a video with the intervention of Remiro Brotóns.

In this regard, Gil ratified that “this agreement, the only one fully in force, establishes a legal and sovereign framework to resolve the territorial dispute over the Essequibo in a satisfactory manner.”

“By trying to evade its legal responsibility to comply with the Geneva Agreement, Guyana seeks to evade the process that both nations agreed to,” he emphasized.
