Barinas, December 3, 2023 (Mincomunas Press) – The People’s Power Minister for Communes and Social Movements, Jorge Arreaza, urged this Sunday the People’s Power to go out and vote this 3D to defend the national sovereignty and the territory of the Essequibo.
“Spokespersons of the Communal Councils, the Communes, Work Committees, instances of the government of the strategic project of the organized people, must express themselves today because it is about the territory where our communities are and in the Essequibo there is also a people that want to organize and move forward as you do every day.”
The Minister emphasized that it is necessary to go out to vote with family, friends, neighbors, and the People’s Power to celebrate tonight the triumph of Venezuela and raise our voice before the world to recover what has always been theirs: The Essequibo.
The questions to be answered by Venezuelans in the consultative referendum are:
1.- Do you agree to reject by all means, in accordance with the law, the line fraudulently imposed by the Paris Arbitral Award of 1899, which seeks to dispossess us of our Essequibo?
2.- Do you support the Geneva Agreement of 1966 as the only valid legal instrument to reach a practical and satisfactory solution for Venezuela and Guyana regarding the dispute over the territory of the Essequibo?
3.- Do you agree with Venezuela’s historical position of not recognizing the International Court of Justice Jurisdiction to resolve the territorial dispute over the Essequibo?
4.- Do you agree to oppose, by all means in accordance with the law, Guyana’s pretension to unilaterally dispose of a sea pending delimitation illegally and violating international law?
5.- Do you agree with the creation of the state of Guayana Esequiba and the development of an accelerated plan for the integral attention to the current and future population of that territory that includes, among others, the granting of Venezuelan citizenship and identity cards, in accordance with the Geneva Agreement and International Law, consequently incorporating said state in the map of the Venezuelan territory?
