Nota del Editor del blog: Al referenciarse a la República Cooperativa de Guyana se deben de tener en cuenta los 159.500 Km2, de territorios ubicados al oeste del río Esequibo conocidos con el nombre de Guayana Esequiba o Zona en Reclamación sujetos al Acuerdo de Ginebra del 17 de febrero de 1966.
La gran cantidad de concesiones para la explotación de oro, diamante, bauxita, tierras raras con un alto contenido de uranio, el forestal así como la señalada en esta información.
Sin que el Gobierno de Caracas haga valer la tradicional posición de la Nación venezolana sobre sus derechos históricos, jurídicos, y sociales de los territorios ubicados al oeste del río Esequibo desde nuestra gesta de emancipación.
Contraviniendo la actual Constitución Nacional y la frustración de toda una nación por sus reivindicaciones territoriales.
