Caracas, February 11 (RHC)-- The Government of Venezuela has denounced a campaign prepared and financed by Exxon Mobil, seconded by Guyana, against the constitutional obligation of the Venezuelan State to establish an integral policy, in the land, insular and maritime border areas, to preserve, through the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB), its territorial integrity, national sovereignty and the defense of the Homeland.

"Venezuela makes it clear, before the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), that the actions of Exxon Mobil and the Government of Guyana, contravene the fundamental principles of international law and constitute an aggression that seeks to destabilize the region," the Foreign Ministry's statement reads.

The communiqué was released by the Venezuelan Foreign Minister, Yván Gil, through his account on the social network X, formerly Twitter.  According to the text, such campaign is nothing more than a ruse to flee from the responsibility that corresponds to it, in view of the scandalous declarations of its president, Alistair Routledge.

The Guyanese president, who in addition to substituting Guyana's sovereignty, has dared to issue threatening judgments, rejoicing at the presence of military powers in an undemarcated sea, where they have received illegal oil concessions, some of them located in an incontrovertibly Venezuelan maritime area.

Venezuela declares that the actions of Exxon Mobil and the Government of Guyana also seek to destabilize the region, violating the recent agreements reached in Argyle, St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

At the same time, they add to the constant provocative rhetoric, accompanied by recurrent declarations of spokespersons of the Department of Defense and the U.S. Southern Command, who have permanently installed themselves in Guyana.

Venezuela reserves diplomatic actions, and all those framed in international law, to enforce its rights, and urges the Cooperative Republic of Guyana to assume its commitments, especially those contemplated in the Geneva Agreement of 1966, the only valid instrument between the parties to find a solution to the territorial dispute between the two countries.
