Below is the full text of the document:
The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela reaffirms before the international community its historic, firm and irrevocable position of rejection of the irrite and fraudulent Arbitration Award of Paris of 1899.
127 years after that artifice, vitiated with nullity since its origins, Venezuela ratifies its historical rights over Guiana Essequiba and reaffirms the full validity of the Geneva Agreement of 1966 as the valid legal instrument for resolving the territorial dispute, through a practical, satisfactory and mutually acceptable settlement.
Venezuela reiterates its invitation to direct dialogue with the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, as the only way to lay solid and stable foundations for good neighbourliness, cooperation, shared economic development and the promotion of investment in the region.
The Venezuelan Sun rises in the Essequibo!
