The International Court of Justice (ICJ) may possibly rule on the border controversy case between Guyana and Venezuela by the end of 2023, according to Guyana’s Agent Carl Greenidge.
“The court has given us a date by which Guyana must present its memorial. That date is March 7th of 2022. In the case of Venezuela, it has to do it a year later; that is March, 2023,” Greenidge yesterday told a press briefing, having noted that the court has already satisfied itself that it has jurisdiction over the matter.
Even if Venezuela doesn’t make a submission, the Court is expected to still make a ruling but that would not come until possibly at the end of 2023 at earliest by Greenidge’s approximation.
