Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : Guyana's president, Irfaan Ali, has appealed for help to the US, the UN and regional neighbours.
42% : This problem is not Essequibo, colonial hangovers or greed for oil.
41% : In 2018, at Guyana's behest, the UN referred the dispute to the international court of justice, which is reviewing it.
38% : It also seems clear that the dispute, which centres on control of the Essequibo region in western Guyana, a sparsely populated area the size of Greece that constitutes about two-thirds of Guyanese territory, is mostly about oil.
