Hmm, like the logic but you don't have the full information. The oil found in Venezuela and now in guyana is mucb harder to process than saudi or middle east oil. The processing for this was setup in texas on the gulf coast. Venezuelan oil was refined in texas and used by the US, it was a very nice trade but due to instability in Venezuela they stopped and US moved to their own shale, but it should easier for the US to process Guyanaese oil compared to anywhere else in the world. Europe is a consumer an end consumer, i doubt they have as much refining capability as the US. Liquified natual Gas is a different story.

This conflict isn’t about oil! Even if Venezuela takes over Guyanese territory, they won’t be able to lay hands on the oil production that’s almost entirely under US oil companies management. The Venezuelan government is not allowed to do business with any US company due to sanctions, plus Venezuela already has the biggest oil and gas reserves of the world within its own territory. This conflict is mainly to provoke political turmoil because of this year’s presidential election that could outs maduro.

history has shown in Nauru that the vision of using the limited natural resource would not be able to benefit a small country in the long run even with the short prosperity it brings today. instead it would destroy the country environment as most likely it would not be managed properly as there would be corruption from both local and international people.

Because of the now advancing rolling out of renewable energy technology, public & private & domestic vehicles are now harnesses the use of the aforementioned. As for the postering of it's neighbour Venezuela 🇻🇪 I really see no danger there. This country's economic has ceased, it already has huge oil reserves which it cannot sell. Therefore laying claims to a region of Guyana where it's recent oil and gas reserves discovered, isn't going to solve Venezuelas problems. 😑

since 2005, the inflation in most of the economies in the WEF has caused value of goods and services to grow 3 fold. guyana's GDP per capita in numbers alone has grown 20 fold since then!!!!! very precarious situation for a small country like guyana. we do know that with kuwait is an example the broader community of buyers safeguard the little guy to keep the right to be a safe seller in the market without being encroached upon by other players. my own concern is that the middle east has extra care given to it because of israel's establishment there. i hope that isn't the case.

Citizens should be praying for God to intervene the dispute. Oil comes with greed, and lack of humility, many people are looking for a shortcut to benefit from oil revenues while preventing others (citizens) to do the same.

Do it like Norway, they now have over $1.5 Trillion in their Sovereign Fund and amazing infrastructure and a long term sustainable income just off a small percentage of interest from investments future for their people.

Don't give 1-in to Venezuela

With the KNOWN oil reserves that Venezuela already has, with a functional governance system, the Venezuelan people would be living in luxury like the AUE, Saudi, and Norwegian folks. Instead, it is one of the poorest countries in South America. Ditto for the Russian people, who are among the world's most educated people, a northern European people like the Fins, Swedes, Estonians, Latvians, Norwegians et al. But unlike those smaller Northern European neighbors, Russia is an 11-time zone nation with more oil, more gold, more gas, more fresh waters, more timbers, more fertile lands, more iron ore, and more other other rare earths and minerals than 99.9% other countries. Yet, Russia also has the per capita income of a Second or Third World nation, like Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, etc. When you find out Venezuela and Russia are bosom buddies, you start to wonder why people nurture political leaders like Chavez, Putin, the Dear Great Leader of North Korea, the Ayatollah et al. And, until Xi made himself Communist Emperor for life, recently, China's leadership at the top changes hands every 10 years... so even as a Communist country, it actually has fresh blood revolving through its top positions, unlike Russia, North Korea, Iran, and other systems based on age-old tribal king and imperial rulers.
