Guyana Protests Venezuela’s Bridge on Disputed Island

Guyana is sounding the alarm as Venezuela builds a military bridge on disputed Ankoko Island, reigniting a decades-old border war over Guyana’s oil-rich Essequibo region — a territory Venezuela claims was stolen in a 1890s boundary decision. Guyana’s foreign minister has summoned Venezuela’s ambassador, calling the bridge a blatant violation of sovereignty and international law. The move directly contradicts last year’s peace agreement, and the case now sits before the International Court of Justice, with Venezuela’s response due by August.
