Guyana urges Venezuela at UN to comply with ICJ ruling on Essequibo

President Irfaan Ali reiterated Guyana's position at the UN, calling on Venezuela to comply with the ICJ ruling on the Essequibo dispute, in response to Delcy Rodríguez's push for bilateral talks. The exchange underscores ongoing tension over the contested territory, with Guyana asserting the validity of the 1899 Arbitral Award. The ICJ's jurisdiction and the final ruling remain pending, but Guyana's stance signals firm legal recourse over negotiation.
