As a Guyanese, India never gave a shit about us, until the oil. Suddenly, they are our best friends. But that ok, new friends are good. But we will stay with England.
Still now we don't give any st about you guys
@@dmworld6574 So why do you all keep talking about us? Why are so many of you in Guyana lately? Why are your Sikhs flocking to our country?
Ahh good old Oil will always get you unwanted friends.
Im glad my Country is sending a ship good relations is always a good thing
@@Kalinakalikalirelax bro, one person typing a TH-cam comment does not speak for an entire nation 😂
And the UK will stand with you too. If Venezuela invades. You'll see much bigger ships than HMS Trent on your doorstep.
If Britain was grandstanding, dear, they wouldnt have sent a patrol boat. The armed services of the UK would be holding full scalee training exercises with the Guyanan defence forces. There are agreements to provide support to all Commonwealth nations and there are also mutual pacts between members. Even India has them.
UK has the balls to actually do something unlike India.
The people of Guyana supported Britain in her hour of need during WW2. I am proud that we are not dishonouring that debt by not supporting our brother Commonwealth country against the clown car dictatorship of Venezuela.
Bro during world war 2 Britain took soldiers from each and every country whom it colonized, because of their shortage of manpower, even they took Jews and arabs with them to fight and promised the Arabs independence with their own state called as palestine and Jews their own state... The Arabs and Jews conflicts are the gameplan of Britishers
@@thugmagnum755Precisely. Never trust these deceitful Anglo-Saxon snakes.
Very happy that UK and Brazil are helping out - nobody else seems to care.
That's because in 2024 it's going to kick off all over the place
This will teach us a lesson on who to support in the future.
US is helping too
🇬🇾🇬🇧
Grandstanding is a silly and inaccurate term, Venezuela is getting belligerent, Britain is helping to send a clear message to the warmongers that action against Guyana is less likely, Venezuela shouldn’t try to copy the crazies of Argentina 4 decades ago. It didn’t end well for the Junta.
Maybe it will take a Falklands war type occurrence to foster a change of government in Venezuela? It's horrible to think a war will decide the outcome!
The only reason that the friendly visit of a UK navy ship to a member of the commonwealth of nations should be considered controversal is the recent hostile claim of Venezuela to part of the territory of it's neighbour.
Since Venezuela has massive oil reserves but manages to keep it's people in poverty it would probablky mange to be just as inefficient if it stole the resources of it's neighbour.
God bless the good people of those UK and Guyana. A free world stands together. If Venezuela was a person, it would be the big bully trying to shake smaller kids down for their lunch money. When the British managed to unite Guyana the people were given freedom and then independence by HM Queen Elizabeth herself. We appreciate our nation, country, foundation heritage and way of life. Venezuela has no room to talk as they've been decades long oppressors trying to disrupt the development and security of smaller neighboring nations. Their intimidating tactics have no boundaries and therefore these US and UK are more than justified in supporting Guayana 🇬🇧🇬🇾🇺🇲🇧🇷🇨🇦.
absolutely right brother just like would stand for Guyana the birthplace of my father.
🇬🇧🇬🇾
Big bully? Then the US and allies are terrorists, they got military bases all over the PLANET, lmao.
One day without hypocrisy is one day wasted for the west, indeed.
at least Great Britain is doing something....what has india done? ZERO! INDIA IS AL;L TALK NO ACTION.
What did Africa done and China and Portugal etc stop u racist b/s
your not making any sense dude...since you dont have any argument...you use the race card. what a shame. Show me what your country has done to help the world. Im prety you dont have one. You guys cant even fix poverty, sewage and clean water and Idians still has the caste sytem and issues with your sikh poupaltion. ...its racism against your own people. Hypocrite!@@Sthmohtwenty
Africa Is a continent @@Sthmohtwenty
We don't like to escalate situations. And suddenly why ppl want India to act as a superpower ? While in General no country wants another nation to poke nose in their affairs.
I'm sure India must be involved in backdoor in diplomacy dealings to stop any conflict.
@@shawnberry6110 😂
If Venezuela attacked,Great Britain would react as in Argentina (1982) and Kuwait 9 years later.
Comparar la conquista de islas pequeñas lejos de las costas de Argentina con ayuda de U.S y de Chile, es totalmente distinto tomer un territorio en disputa de varils km2 siendo tan grande como el estado de Florida U.S, siendo en tierra firme siendo pura selva, con 150,000 soldados venezolanos con armas rusas, chinas, e iraníes. 🤔
Grandstanding? The media really latched onto the term “warship” didn’t they? When it’s instead a rather small patrol ship with about enough military capacity to deal with illegal fishing vessels or small time pirates. Suppose that dwarfs Venezuela’s capacity doesn’t it? Since Venezuela’s last engagement losing a military vessel to a cruise ship.
The patrol boat will be escorted by a British nuclear sub, equipped with nuclear weapons. The general public will not be aware of this, but the Venezuelan government will have been quietly notified this.
Well done 👏 🇬🇧 venezuela is going to think twice before before making a mistake
Bravo to British Forces.
Venezuela have been threatening to invade Guyana, a militarily weak but rich country. The 1899 Arbitral Award which set the international boundary of Guyana and Venezuela and which Venezuela demarcated and recognized for over 60 years is internationally recognized. Venezuela, when Guyana was about to get its independence in 1962 suddenly began to claim Guyana's territory and was on the point of destroying its weaker neighbour and seizing its territory . It is Venezuela which is disturbing the peace and causing tension as the the rest of the countries of the Americas through the OAS are saying. Venezuela's bullyism could be imposed on Guyana but when the bully is faced with an adequate military, they stop their foolishness. The British ship is welcome by Guyana and all the Caricom countries and has definitely reduced the tension which Venezuela has been generating. Britain has not been grandstanding but is welcomed by Guyana and the Caricom. India should be assisting Guyana as its true and dependable ally and friend. The WION reporter should try to be fully informed.
I had stopped watching wion biased reporting a long time ago because they seem to have an agenda 😊
I disagree with all of you that are saying that India should “help us”. I wish you all would stop asking them for diplomatic assistance. India does not care about the Guyanese people, they care about the cursed oil just like the other countries that are involving themselves in this conflict. If they did care, why did they not care when Indo people were being ma$$acred in Wismar, Bartica and Lusignan? You all should be reminded,too, that India and Venezuela have been partners of some kind as well due to Venezuela’s rusty oil. Russia who is backing Venezuela in their imperialist ambitions, is also an ally of India. So just stop!
I believe that you need to do better research about the so called massacre you are talking about...you sound like a miserable misinformed racist 😮
Hang on a minute !!🤔, what happened to "Just Stop Oil" ? Moving away from fossil fuels which we are been told along with cattle farting is bringing the world to a ecological Climate Catastrophe???
Oh ok that was just for Exercise lol
Now where is the oil and how fast can we get it lol
You are right, the majority Indian ( from India ) population of Guyana which is about 51%, have had a very rough time from 1838 when they they were transported as indentured labourers to Berbice and other parts of West Bank Demerara. Quite a few committed suicide .
Saint Greta aint going to be a happy bunny when she hears this news
How dare you !!!!
as who says India should help then also Africa, what a BS, England is the only country that should help, in which they have sent a war ship to look at this so far I have heard.
And India is doing nothing about anything...typical...
They are busy looking to buy cheap stuff...typical Indians 😊
Lo único que puede hacer la india es regresar los a la india
India should be helping guyana too. Guyana has hugh indian popuation of 43% indian. Guyana has 31% hindus. Many hindus live in essiquibo.
They and Trinis are more like Jamaicans in culture than Indians. I grew up in New Jersey and met several. They are Caribbean to the core. They do like cricket though. West Indies.
@@Mudshovel-xx6seour ancestors r from India 🇮🇳 but we have our own West Indian culture and we also uphold our traditional culture and beliefs and values from India 🇮🇳
@@Mudshovel-xx6se I guess you haven’t seen Trinidad or Guyana.
@@juderamnarine5617 I’ve seen the ones in NJ and NY.
India can't help there citizen wdf they will do 4 Guyana...why not d massive Africa continents...we're Guyana have lots of afro Guyanese
LET THERE BE PEACE IN THE WORLD.
We’re trying 🇬🇧
Seems like Wion has gone cucoo after a certain person left.
Is this news? At least the UK 🇬🇧 is doing something for Guyana 🇬🇾
Great news Venezuela must not be allowed to invade Guyana 🌎✌️
WION should do their own thorough research and report their findings, and not rely on biased reports from random sources.
The visit of a patrol ship in a neighboring Commonwealth country is not grandstanding, nor is it threatening in any way.
because Mauro of Venezuela thinks that UK and US have too much war on their hands with Ukraine and Israel and they would not interfere with to help Guyana, well don't be surprised. look what happened in 1980 with the Falkland, and for me my father was born and died in Guyana and if they need help I will help.
Ukraine is waste disposal for out of date weapons
Grand standing?lol grand standing is where a weak nation like india ties to look tough, not a powerful nation like the UK. Learn the difference.
U.K powerful ? It's a vassal state of USA 😂 Grow up to reality.
Venezuela.... please don't use your mighty forces against little ol' UK😢.
Terrifying! 😂🤣
British grandstanding????
Good 1😂😂😂
As much as I have my issues with mybparents former coloniser, what ekse do you expect them to do?!
ALL countries, including India, engage in acts that can be labelled "grandstsnding". At least Britain sent a warship, what is India doing to help Guyana?! Now is not the time for Britain bashing for the sake of Britain bashing, hiw about Wion get our there and drum up Commonwealth support fir Guyana instead!
India is sending a team of internet scammers.
HMS Trent's armament is just one tiny gun
It might be effective against a dug out canoe but not much else
its not there to fight its there to die the question is will Venezuela kill it and escalate to a war with the UK
A warship is a very loose description of this vessel , it is painted grey though 🤔
It's intended to monitor
@@bg1616 that is as much as its capable of to be fair
@@justincase6645 And probably as intended as that.
I’m with Guyana ❤
Venezuela has become terror for everyone including migrants to other countries
Venezuela has become a terror because America could not steal its oil , lies are making it evil .
I'm with Venezuela 🇻🇪 because I don't like it when western countries behave like weasels all the time.
Venezuela has a meltdown 😂😂
Thank u England,Where the fuxk is the USA
Uh they are planning joint military operations. Just remember who defends most of the free world. The US. You think we don’t already have ships in the area?
why would brainless biden send anything? his last brain cell?
Dealing with their own problems
Biden
@@lyndaek99or creating more problems to deal with , whilst "Rome" burns Joke Biden is on Vacation....where he has spent 40% of his time since his appointment, he is the modern Claudius , been manoeuvred by his "freedmen" a quivering wreck at best , certainly not in control of anything ,
Least of all his bowel movements , can the world wait until November ??
India should help Guyana
Essequibo belongs to Guyana. Venezuela will be served a befitting reply if it dares any misadventure to Guyana's sovereign territory, it will be swift and decisive .Guyana has very powerful allies. UK ,NETHERLANDS, FRANCE all former administrators of the wild coast,not forgetting USA ,will not a war in the western hemisphere.
Powerful allies that just got broke with the Ukranian war?.....hahahaha!!!!. Are you living in a cave? do you read the news? . Just imagine the Taiwan-China war. Is coming. No more ammunition, money, weapons from Europe. !!
Guayan está sola todos priorizan más Ucrania e Israel, olvidas que Venezuela tiene apoyo de Rusia, China, Irán, y Corea del Norte.
@@reinaroja2024 la OTAN esta quebrada y en bancarrota. Ni me imagino una Guerra China Taiwan
@@reinaroja2024 Y cuando China invada Taiwan, todos se olvidaran de la pobre Guyana....🤣
@@parrotsarnoso1099 En verdad si, Taiwán tiene mayor importancia a nivel mundial que Guyana.
I expect that India being part of the British Commonwealth would be in support. It’s is fine, if they are not, we have grown accustomed to doing it ourselves. Ha Har Mahadev!
Indians (as in from India) were amongst the indentured workers brought to what was British Guiana.
@@therespectedlex9794 And it was so good they never came back
India isn't in the British Commonwealth nor is Guyana. Come to think of it neither is Britain.
@reluctantheist5224 They are, but it is getting to the point where they might as well not be. Even Britain is devolved into 'home nations' true. But then it is split into four countires in the Commonwealth Games.
@@therespectedlex9794 You are thinking of the Commonwealth of Nations. The British Commonwealth was its predecessor and required loyalty to the crown.
Venezuelan government recording in VHS video says it all.
Is d oil in d coil
Venezuela has massive oil reserves anyway, so it's not about oil... Countries tend to become unstable when they collapse...
India with Guyana❤❤❤❤❤❤
where there is money? people get greedy
Well said had guyana not have oil I wonder who would have supporting.
@@Johncena-en7tp Nadie, solo U.K y U.S les importa robar de sus excolonias.
Finding oil and getting rich from it takes a little time
No, just reminding Maduro that Guyana has friends.
Reminding Venezuela of the Falklands conflict
Guyana is part of the Commonwealth and is an AMAZING country. They deserve British protection 🇬🇧🇬🇾
Please. Make another video ti show what has happened since the Arrival of the hms ship in Guyana.
I mean we can send HMS Queen Lizzy Aircraft Carrier and many destroyers if we wanted to grand stand, Venezuelas Army is a joke
Let's hope it's not necessary. But why call it grandstanding? This has nothing to do with the UK trying to raise its profile. It is about defending a democracy against an autocracy. Since Guyana is a Commonwealth country, Britain accepts some responsibility for defending it given that it would not be capable of defending itself against Venezuela.
One 'borrowed' age-old French Exocet missile, fired at the British off-shore patrol vessel, ought to suffice to ignite military conflict 'twixt an under weaponised and under-strength Venezuela armed forces and battle-hardened British professionals.
They thoroughly failed to impress, upon losing an 'action' against an unarmed cruise ship touring the region . . .
Britain has experience of chasing off a covetous Guatemala from ex-British colony Belize, in Central America.
A bit like India's Grandstanding at the G20 and Lunar Landing...
Yes we are 🇬🇧
❤❤
atleast UK is helping Guyana 🇬🇾 unlike yourselves
🇬🇾🇬🇧
A tiny virtually useless warship from Britain cannot do anything if Venezuela decides to invade Esequibo. This issue should be sorted out by the South American countries alone, without outside interference. It was only a couple of decades ago that Trinidad and after that Guyana considered switching their own language of English, to Spanish. But nothing happened. Maduro needs to be careful, and go for a democratic way to settle the matter. Only 95,000 people live there, but they all speak English, except for the 3 % who are Amerindians who live in the forest areas, not the coast where black and brown Guyanese live.
The OPV is a a political statement and a warning. If Venezuala was stupid enough to attack and sink this minor vessel, the UK certainly has far more potent warships to deploy that would make short work of Venezuala's mediocre military and they know it.
if the Guyana's ask for this visit what business is it of any other country
Nice language you're speaking there, sweetheart
How is a small patrol ship a "warship"?
The same way anything with tracks gets called a tank.
Soon GB will only be able to send a few inflatable boats with rowers and swimmers. 😅
you saw what the U.K. did over the falkland islands..
I think they need to be reminded in grand fashion 🤷🏻♀️
Is there oil there or something 😂
yes it why Venezuela has decided to invade not because they actually plan to they want to stop the oil industry in Guyana being developed while the industry in Venezuela continue to collapse
Hardly a match for the uk 🇬🇧 😂
The Guiana Esequiba is from the people of Venezuela
That boat is hardly a warship.
Come on ! We conquered India didn't we? 😂😂😂😂
Christopher Columbus-(an Italian who sailed for spain)sighted guyana but never claimed the essequibo. The Dutch and British claimed essiquibo.If the Spanish felt that they were cheated over a century ago ,why they did not challenge the 1899 accord at that time?Waiting for a dead man open envelope?to know that essequibo is part of Venezuela. I know most the Caribbean Islands was discovered by Columbus but not Guiana.I studied history of the west Indian people book 0ne to book four and Caribbean lands text books in guyana high school.
Thank you! It is clear as day when people know the history!
WHERE THE MONEY IS, THATS WHERE THEY GO, NOT THE SAFETINESS OR SOVEREIGNTY OF ONES COUNTRY.
Only one ship???
Hold on! That’s not all. Some of the marines on that boat could swim in different directions and try to fool Kinzhal hypersonic gliders coming from Venezuela. 🤦♂️🤣
I thought they would have sent a commendation letter to Caricom for helping to make peace in the region, rather they sending war ship Blessed are the Peacemakers. No to war, rumors if war, nor proponents of war, not down south we have heard enough from e.u nato usa et al we want peace on our region PEACE.😊
She sounds like a scammer.
To those of you who do not know essequeble, it belongs to the native Indians of Guyana. In the days of slavery the native indiand the slaves fought for freedom. The people of guyana always looked up to england as a modern country and the queen of england turn around and give her a little colony education and give us the choice to live in England or Stay in guyana . Long live, the king of England Venezuela is a thief. He can't even take care of his own country. And he's worried about hours.
What is India doing to help stop the atrocities in Myanmar?
Don't worry luv ... The SAS will already be in Venezuela
You media called it grandstandtoo before the falklands war.
Obviously uk gonna back guyana cuz guyana was british guyana until it gaind independent in 1996
El esequibo venezuela
After 124 years
Venezuela's claim is weak. This is the main reason that its president, Maduro, says he will not accept any judgement by the ICJ while Guyana says it will abide by the decision of the ICJ.
Who founded ICJ? Who pays it? I’m not an expert, but I guess it belongs to the US/GB.
Not a new claim !!! Is an old claim
Don't be so bloody cheeky.
There is nothing we can do 😂.
Amen thanks to Britain to assist Guyana would u believe that after 62 years Venezuela wants to occupied Esikibo
Only 2 country sick the nose in uk and us
so the question why has India not done so?
@@graveperil2169 Because India knows who the weasel is in this situation. 🤷♂️
@@neko1533 boy do you have inferiority issues
@@neko1533 I mean India is the biggest weasel nation of them all. Trying to play all sides. Can't wait to see that spectacularly backfire lol
We are good friends with Guyana 🇬🇾 🇬🇧
They are part of the Commonwealth 😊
They guarding the oil for theirself while the poor in guyans suffering .
Guyana is fully independent.
In fact their government is trying to lease more oil field to American companies.
Guyana and Britain have extremely strong cultural ties, more than ANY S.A. country 🇬🇾🇬🇧
Preparing ready ofcourse must have to because the world is jealousy???😊😊😊❤❤❤
There has always been oil in Venezuela. The US would have more interest than the UK. If its such an oil rich country why are the citizens of Venezuela leaving for the US. Poverty.
funny how a channel claims to be neutral but calls this grandstanding…….neutral would be reporting facts not injecting opinion
Please for the love of god The Essequibo is a DUTCH NAME AND WAS CONTROLLED BY THE DUTCH, there’s nothing Spanish about it, the Spanish tried to conquer the Dutch but didn’t succeed. We have Dutch forts in the Essequibo
second that
Guyana is a Commonwealth nation and will be protected U K. It is not a new agreement.
🇬🇾🇬🇧
Well I hope that british ship don't broke down half way along the trip 😂😂😂
well as the river class has been as far south as the Falkland's I doubt Guyana i going to be a problem
4 real ..UK can't stop ppl arriving on their soil but sending war ship to guyana lol
@@Sthmohtwenty The UK can kill people in south america just like everyone else but they are no allowed to in the English channel to many witnesses

Grandstanding? Are you f--king kidding me?
The nerve haha
With out tv all she'd be doing is yapping at her bedroom wall....
“Grandstanding”? Not sure you understand what the word means. If you want to understand, then look at India sending its navy to the Arabian Gulf 🤭🤣 What will they do there? That’s grandstanding…
What do you think they will do there???? They will project power. They will act as a deterrent. They will protect ships. They will do search and rescue ops. They will escort ships. Isn’t that more than enough?
One vessel to take care in a war in Guyana, silly.
It worked though.
Guyana.is.bringing.u.s.a..n.a.t.o...to.venuzelia.back.yard.😂😂😂😂
"Warship" 😆 🤣 😂
Why are we sending a boat there? We can't even defend our own English channel from rubber dingys... we should learn to defend our own waters first.
oil dear
I agree 100%....!!!
@@skrmacs4815 ffs I wish we would keep out of it 🙄 it's not our place to send ships there
