GEORGETOWN, Guyana (CMC) â President Irfaan Ali says Guyana remains confident that the International Court of Justice (ICJ) will rule in its favour in the decades-old border dispute with Venezuela.
Oral hearings in the territorial controversy concluded on May 11 and Guyanaâs case affirming the validity of the 1899 Arbitral Award is now fully before the ICJ with a final, binding ruling expected early in the new year.
In June, the Ali administration said all that remains to be done is for the ICJ to deliberate, draft its judgment and deliver it in a public session, a process the ICJ has historically completed within six to eight months of the close of hearings.
