International Court of Justice I am here because Venezuela has been a victim of injustice for so long at the hands of Guyana a country that has wrongfully violated the Treaty of Geneva which came into existence on February 17, 1966 which requires both Venezuela and Guyana to actively seek peace through negotiations and dialogue. The history of our dispute with Guyana goes back to times before the independence of Guyana to the time in which we engaged in arbitration in which the United States at that time acted as our negotiators on our behalf negotiated the following agreement which was signed in the Treaty of Arbitration in 1897 which set apart the following distinction in territory:

In 1966 this dispute was agreed to be put on hold for 12 years time during which the existing boundaries would be respected and for those 12 years there was peace but after those 12 years the government of Guyana began to do what they have done to this day in attempting to expand their maritime borders and their land grants despite the territory rightfully belonging to Venezuela. Despite the protestations of Brazil and Great Britain our intentions are peaceful and we are intent on finding a resolution through the ICJ to this problem as Guyana has refused our requests to negotiate on this matter and refused our attempts to initiate a dialogue on our dispute.

We seek from the ICJ:

-Return of Essequibo to Venezuela
-Monetary damages in excess of 1.6 trillion USD for lost mineral, petroleum and air rights lost due to illegal occupation of the territory including expected revenue gains
-Compulsion of Guyana to engage in arbitration

You guys do not control the judges! Only the mod team can decide the outcome of any complaint. If Venezuela wants to go ahead with its claim it will have to submit a case. Which will be reviewed. Note that however providing incorrect information will definitely not be supportive for your case.
