💨 Abstract

Venezuela's government has rejected a United Nations court ruling ordering it to halt elections for officials overseeing a disputed, resource-rich region in Guyana. Both countries claim the Essequibo region, which contains gold, diamonds, timber, and offshore oil deposits. The region has long been a source of tension between the two nations, with Venezuela asserting it is part of their historical territory.
