A potential regional war is brewing in South America as Brazil moves troops towards its border with Venezuela in response to the fascist left country’s alleged looming invasion of neighboring state Guyana. Venezuela appears prepared to invade Guyana with the hope of annexing the country into its own territory.
Venezuela is claiming ownership rights of a huge swathe of Guyana called the Essequibo region. The rubber-stamp parliament passed a resolution initiated by dictator Nicolas Maduro to “allow” the Venezuelan voters to decide if they want to annex Guyana to gain control of the disputed region. Guyana has petitioned an international court to rule on this de facto move for annexation but has not received word back from the court.
The referendum is to be held Sunday, December 2, but skirmishes between Venezuelan and Guyanan troops are already being reported. Brazil has committed itself to defend Guyana should Venezuela choose to invade, which could lead to a regional war in South America.
