Venezuela and Guyana have a common neighbour : Brazil! Brazil sent a clear message to Maduro : back-off ! The Venezuelan army composed mainly of Cuban and Russian mercenaries is by far no match to the Brazilian army!
Guyana belongs in Africa not in South America. Guayana came to be due to imperialistic country UK they brought slave to that part of the world. in oder words it doesn't support to exits.
I think history will show once again that whether it's a foreign investor or a national owned company the average citizen will lose out on all these "promised benefits".
Let's face it, the oil is better off in the hands of the Guyanese rather than the Venezuelans. Hugo Chavez and Nicolas Maduro ran their country into the ground. Let Guyana keep the land and oil, from the looks of it, the government is using the oil to improve the lives of its people. I do hope they'll become the Norway of South America and continue to prosper.

Yeah keep thinking that at the end you’re an American brainwashed if you’re Venezuelan you already should know it’s fault of the government of course but the big fault lies on US hands believing they’re the worlds police having jurisdiction in our own sovereignty

Did a joint training mission with Guyana. So many countries in South America and Central America were involved including France and UK. So if anything does happen Guyana does have a lot support
What joint mission? We do not have an army just military personnel whose sole purpose was to control our population. This is a Kangaroo army. How many Brigadier Generals can you get from 5,000 troops? 😂😂😂😂 We have no weapons, no aircraft, no APCs, no tanks, no military hardware whatsoever. Let’s face it, our pants are around our ankles.

CNBC did a fine job. As a Guyanese I approve. Guyana has a long way to go and I do agree that managing the fund like Norway 🇳🇴 is a great example of generational wealth for the people of Guyana.
I am a gyuanaese i am 40 years old ,its funny how the World view guyana as fastest growing ecomony for the Last two years the conuntry is Still the same the infastructure ,health care and 90% of all guyanese are below the poverty line and it getting worse.sorry your news is always wrong.
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.
@@deodatsingh4621 He obviousy missed Math classes thinking any country could have 18,000 years of oil production. They plan to double production to 1.2 million barrels per day by 2027. And so far they found 11 billion barreks so rough math at 1 million a day that is 365M barrels. 11 billion divided by 365M is roughly 30 years of extraction plus or minus actual daily production and whether additional resources are found. Certainly not 18,000 years.
@@deodatsingh4621 Was not addressing the economics of extraction just dealing with the math oversight. But yes i know depending on the type of crude extracted it can be more or less expensive to process. I believe that is the case with Venezuelan heavy oils as well as Canadian sandy oils up in the Alberta region.
GDP as a mesure of wealth means little to nothing. My question would be how have the average hourly wages risen? I wish the good people of Guyana the best but without a Norway model in place I expect the Guyanese elite and politicians to squander this wealth as did Trinidad & Tobago.
Trinidad and Tobago has one of the highest standards of living in the western hemisphere and this even as they have very little oil so I'm not sure where this example comes from. Either way it is everyone's hope that Guyana thrives with their new found wealth but only time will tell.
Saw a video in which people explained how the American state of Louisiana was simultaneously one of the richest American states and one of the poorest American states. The state makes vast revenue from industries such as the fossil fuel industry but almost all that money goes to corporations while average workers in Louisiana have one if the lowest standards of living in the United States.

Wow, my home country made the news. I was there in December and there have quite a bit of Venezuelans in Guyana. Venezuela needs to worry about their economy. The border issue is all based on colonialism.
Greed will take over IF not managed correctly. The common man and woman will not see an increase in living conditions if corporate greed wins. Let’s see how this plays out.
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.
Greed is the number one problem of the world. Venezuela, who has 300 billion barrels of oil reserve, wants to fight its neighbor who has barely 11 billion. Shame
No, its Exxon Mobil's oil boom. Will the people of Guyana benefit, look at what's happening in Papua New Guinea, is the folks there benefiting after all Exxon Mobil is there too.
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.
Well done Guyana 🇬🇾 I'm happy for you and your newly found wealth. However, somewhere in this report I distinctly heard the terms used boom or bust. Certainly within less than 100 years from now, the world over will become less dependent for oil. 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. 😑
I Am Guyanese & Our Country Needs To Negotiate A Proper Deal With Anyone. Natural Resources Belongs To Guyana & For Exxon and I pay NO taxes and provide no insurance in case or a natural disaster as they have caused many before.. Is Insane 👀
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.
You can have your own opinions but not your own facts. Venezuela didn’t mismanage its energy sector- they used to provide fuel to poor American households every year during winters when our own government didn’t provide winter heat for poor people
We have 10s of thousands of Venezuelans coming through the back door into the US. Give them some help and I bet you can get them to fix our Maduro problem.
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.
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.
International companies deserve less revenue and smaller profit margins, I’m sorry I don’t care about Exxon Mobile exploding their profit. These types of situations where companies setup shop in developing nations, the benefits should lean in favor of the nation so they can develop. The idea that Exxon gets the edge when it comes to that is wrong. People > large international companies
What do you think happened in countries like Saudi Arabia. For Saudi Arabia an American company started extracting oil and make Saudi Arabia rich. Even til this day Saudi Aramco winch is valued at $2.5 trillion the third most valuable company in the world stands for Arabian American oil company. You can't expect a third world country to be able to extract the resources in a quick manner, it's better to have a company with expertise. As time goes on you use the money to make your own company or aquire the existing ones as the Saudis eventually did.
@@seanthe100 we all know Exxon isn’t setting up shop in Guyana just to help them industrialize and learn how to do it themselves. Exxon has plans for lopsided profit in that country lasting decades and will use political power to maintain it. Private oil companies have a horrible history in South America, not to mention to US led coups to ensure they could still operate in the region.
President of Venezuela is a disciple of Satya sai baba and adhere to Hindu philosophy while President of Guyana is an lsIamist .We must be neutral here ,we don't have very good experiences with Indian orgin lsIamists. As per your logic, we should even support Zakir Naik 😂😂

Guyana should invest more into defensive capabilities, make military pacts with Brasil or US or any other country, build pillboxes and buy FPV-drones and maybe also bribe Maduro.
OPEC can't be pleased with Canada, the United States, Brazil and Guyana all increasing oil production this year. It might seem that they would be happy if oil prices do end up going up if the Houthis start attacking oil tankers but not if those are oil tankers transporting oil from OPEC countries.
It is NOT all about oil. Venezuela has ALWAYS claimed he Essequibo region. A little research would show this, there are too many "experts" out there who know nothing about what is happening outside the USA but pretend to know.
How contradictory. They keep calling it "Essequibo" and then in the next line say "Part of Guayana". If it were part of Guayana why dont they call it Guyana? LOL Essequibo is in dispute and Guayan have been putting people and profiting from the soil. Venezuela should invade and annex Essequibo.
I hope Guyana Prosper with the new wealth boom. As for Venezuela, I hope Guyana chooses diplomacy till the very last end till there is no other cards to be drawn. Of course the US and Co will come to their aid but this will make loose some form of sovereignty.
Exxonmobile is already there teaching them about Democracy, the US government well be there to gave guyana freeDUMB, whenever a war breaks out in that area😅
You're seriously misinformed as the company extracting oil is Exxon winch is an American company, not to mention US oil production right now is the highest of any country in history doesn't really need another countries oil
In 2023 I would hope that the world is not thinking OIL! $$$ when we are basically destroying our planet with carbon emissions. Let's get going with EVs at scale, next gen nuclear, and more renewables.
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.
If Venezuela decides to invade Guyanese forces are comparable to a small police force. Venezuela on the other hand has modern Russian fighter aircraft,artillery and tanks. It would be comparable to shooting fish in a barrel.
If Venezuelans are not able to benefit from their own oil reserves what are the chances are the they will benefit from the oil reserves of a country that they annex? Also who will develop those oil fields, who will finance it, who will buy it and who will transport it?
I hope Guyana succeeds and the political structure don't give in to greed and self interest

@@seanthe100 we all know Exxon isn’t setting up shop in Guyana just to help them industrialize and learn how to do it themselves. Exxon has plans for lopsided profit in that country lasting decades and will use political power to maintain it. Private oil companies have a horrible history in South America, not to mention to US led coups to ensure they could still operate in the region.
Not a blade of grass 🇬🇾🇬🇾
God bless Guyana, Exxon and these United States. 🇬🇾🇺🇸. Still winning!
Support Guyana from India 🇮🇳🇬🇾❣️❣️
Guyana should focus on defence ties with India.
President of Venezuela is a disciple of Satya sai baba and adhere to Hindu philosophy while President of Guyana is an lsIamist .We must be neutral here ,we don't have very good experiences with Indian orgin lsIamists. As per your logic, we should even support Zakir Naik 😂😂
@@pritsingh9766 but Guyana has oil deals with india
Hey buddy, you should stay out of this topic,,for real! Im serious !! Dont dare mention your backward religious beliefs on this forum. This is West Indies/South America and not your backward country called India!!!!
We dont diffrentiate Muslim Chiristian Hindu in our country. Our beloved President, Mohamed Irfaan Ali is the greatest in our history..a man with guts who stands up to anyone in the world! He is NO.1 in the Caribbean. Every leader in the world welcomes him with open arms. He is a great speaker and he talk the facts! Can your leader do the same?? Never, your prime minister is just spreading hate in your country!!!!WE DONT NEED YOUR COUNTRY CALLED INDIA!!@@pritsingh9766
Guyana & Belize are the 2 English speaking countries of Latin America.
@13:06 Guyana is has already been doing all 3 things listed, Venezula can kick rocks
Wrong map!
Especially that of Suriname
Guyana should invest more into defensive capabilities, make military pacts with Brasil or US or any other country, build pillboxes and buy FPV-drones and maybe also bribe Maduro.
OPEC can't be pleased with Canada, the United States,
Brazil and Guyana
all increasing oil production this year.
It might seem that they would be happy if oil prices do end up going up if the Houthis start attacking oil tankers but not if those are oil tankers transporting oil from
OPEC countries.
It is NOT all about oil. Venezuela has ALWAYS claimed he Essequibo region. A little research would show this, there are too many "experts" out there who know nothing about what is happening outside the USA but pretend to know.
Venezuela is a failed state. Change my mind
How contradictory. They keep calling it "Essequibo" and then in the next line say "Part of Guayana". If it were part of Guayana why dont they call it Guyana? LOL Essequibo is in dispute and Guayan have been putting people and profiting from the soil. Venezuela should invade and annex Essequibo.
@larrys4618 Haha, you would not cowards, not even with the help of english pirates.
I hope Guyana Prosper with the new wealth boom.
As for Venezuela, I hope Guyana chooses diplomacy till the very last end till there is no other cards to be drawn. Of course the US and Co will come to their aid but this will make loose some form of sovereignty.
That’s right people
They will need American democracy soon …..
Exxonmobile is already there teaching them about Democracy, the US government well be there to gave guyana freeDUMB, whenever a war breaks out in that area😅
Guyana is making one of them mess up deals that Africa likes to make
Sounds like Guyana doesn't have enough freedom & democracy. No worries, Biden and the "coalition of the willing" is here to help.
Was literally about to post the same thing...I'm with you they definitely need more freedom and democracy.
Sounds like you need to educate yourself a bit more about the politics of Guyana and it’s history.
You're seriously misinformed as the company extracting oil is Exxon winch is an American company, not to mention US oil production right now is the highest of any country in history doesn't really need another countries oil
Damn how quickly history is forgotten. It was your boy W. Bush who invaded 2 nations. I dont even like Biden nor voted for him.
Maduro: we want that region
Guyana: we have powerful friends
Maduro: 😮
Guyana: 😅
In 2023 I would hope that the world is not thinking OIL! $$$ when we are basically destroying our planet with carbon emissions. Let's get going with EVs at scale, next gen nuclear, and more renewables.
Oil/fossil fuels are still a very efficient fuel source. There needs to be a slow transition or you will permanently destroy income in most nations
Brazil does nothing, because Brazil is no international police, learn this US
Funny lol. just a couple of years, nobody had never heard about Guyanna. All of a sudden, every eye has turned to the country.
Not in Latin America. Guayana has always been part of the South America Social Studies in schools.
Guyanesego home ezequibo was squatt by brithish.
Guyana discovers oil….
America: Guyana is a nation that needs to be freed from its authoritarian regime.
The reality is more than half of the guyanese population lives in the USA
@@daleafaghani340 and Canada
Guess what I'm thinking. Guyana will need American democracy if they ditch America
The new Iraq vs Kuwait
As a Guyanese i wanna thank you guys at CNBC for covering this! 🇬🇾❤️
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.
If Venezuela decides to invade Guyanese forces are comparable to a small police force. Venezuela on the other hand has modern Russian fighter aircraft,artillery and tanks. It would be comparable to shooting fish in a barrel.
Don't give 1-in to Venezuela
If Venezuelans are not able to benefit from their own oil reserves what are the chances are the they will benefit from the oil reserves of a country that they annex?
Also who will develop those oil fields, who will finance it, who will buy it and who will transport it?
Oil brings a lot of conflict hence war on terror (war for oil) 😢
