There will be no raids Venezuela is currently considering an approach to the area with military deployments ordered by Nicolás Maduro, in towns near the disputed area, where no raids will be carried out for now. The president announced, at the beginning of the week, that the military division will have its headquarters, provisionally, in the town of Tumeremo, in the state of Bolívar , bordering Brazil. Maduro appointed General Alexis Rodríguez Cabello as the sole authority of Guayana Esequiba, who will also operate from Venezuelan territory.
War cloud in northern South America A disturbing Luxembourg Mobile Number List war cloud is taking shape in northern South America following Maduro 's unpopular and isolated announcement to annex the disputed Essequibo region of Guyana . The Venezuelan dictator's announcement was based on a referendum with dubious participation and results last Sunday. In response, the government of Guyana summoned the United States Southern Command, a country that this Thursday reported that it will carry out military exercises in the region. "In collaboration with the Guyana Defense Forces, the United States Southern Command will conduct flight operations within Guyana on December 7 ," said a statement issued by the US embassy in Guyana.
This exercise builds on routine engagements and operations to enhance the security partnership between the United States and Guyana, and strengthen regional cooperation," the text states. Brazil added tension with another announcement: the mobilization of Venezuelan troops in the area. The number of Venezuelan soldiers on the border with the Brazilian state of Roraima has increased in recent days in the context of existing tensions between Caracas and the Guyanese authorities over sovereignty over the Essequibo. Sources from the Brazilian army explained that the state of Roraima borders Venezuela and Guyana, which have been disputed for more than a century over the territory of Essequibo, rich in oil, mineral and environmental resources.
