The Venezuelan Defense Minister previously warned that until the United Kingdom draws out the warship it had deployed off Guyana's coast, Venezuela will continue to deploy its military forces across the country.

Last week, Britain decided to dispatch a naval ship, the Royal Navy patrol vessel HMS Trent, to the waters coasting Guayana.

Slamming the action, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said it violated the "spirit" of an agreement signed between Venezuelan and Guyanese authorities and called the deployment "practically a military threat" from Britain.

On December 15, Guyana and Venezuela agreed to avert the use of force and threats to settle the disputed Essequibo territory to resolve matters of conflict within international law, such as the 1966 Geneva Agreement.

Published by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, the statement said, "Guyana and Venezuela, directly or indirectly, will not threaten or use force against one another in any circumstances, including those consequential to any existing controversies between the two States."
