Border Dispute Between Guyana, Venezuela Hits UN Court
The controversy dates back to 1899, and Venezuela reignited the dispute
two years ago by seizing a ship in waters claimed by both countries.
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (CN) — The United Nations’ top court held its
first virtual hearing Tuesday, taking up a 120-year-old territorial
dispute between Guyana and Venezuela.
Guyana made its arguments as to why the International Court of Justice
has jurisdiction in the border dispute, which calls into question the
ownership of more than half of the South American country’s territory.
