Venezuelans vote in controversial referendum on disputed territory with Guyana | #venezuela #guyana
Venezuelans are voting in a controversial referendum the government hopes will strengthen its claim over Essequibo, a territory that's legally part of neighboring Guyana. The vote is non-binding and comes after the United Nations top court ordered Caracas not to take any action that would alter Guyana's control over the territory.
