Guyana is restating its position that it will not re-enter bilateral talks with Venezuela on the border controversy but will rely on the World Court as the venue for resolution as decided on under the 1966 Geneva Agreement.
“We are following the 1966 Geneva Agreement to the letter. We have had bilateral talks and that failed. We used, as I said, the 1966 Agreement which provided for the United Nations Secretary General to choose a path for the final resolution…,” Minis-ter of Foreign Affairs Hugh Todd told Stabroek News yesterday when contacted.
Georgetown’s position comes as Venezuelan Pre-sident Nicolas Maduro said over the weekend that he wanted to re-enter talks on the issue that is currently before the International Court of Justice (ICJ), also known as the World Court.
