Venezuela Accuses US of Building “Secret Military Bases“ in Disputed Essequibo | Firstpost America Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro has accused the United States of building military bases secretly in the disputed region of Essequibo, which borders with Guyana. Maduro has claimed that the existence of such bases acts as an “aggression“ against the people of his country. He further claimed that the US and Guyana are preparing an escalation against Caracas. About two-thirds of the oil-rich region has been governed by Guyana for more than 100 years. However, Venezuela claims the land as its own. It even voted for a controversial referendum to include the contested region as part of its national territory. --- Venezuela | Nicolás Maduro | Guyana | Essequibo | Oil-Rich Region | United States | Secret Military Bases | Firstpost America | Eric Ham | War | Geopolitics | Global Economy | Firstpost | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | Trending News #venezuela #nicolasmaduro #secretmilitarybases #guyana #essequibo #oilrichregion #unitedstates #firstpostamerica #ericham #war #geopolitics #economy #firstpost #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
