Reuters - World Court says it can rule on Guyana-Venezuela border dispute

#Venezuela apparently didn't outright reject ruling that #WorldCourt (#ICJ) can resolve its #territorialdispute with #Guyana, which will be considered binding under international law, despite largely boycotting the proceedings so far. https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/world-court-says-it-can-rule-guyana-venezuela-border-dispute-2023-04-06/

Reuters - World Court says it can rule on Guyana-Venezuela border dispute

This week the International Court of Justice (#ICJ) rejected #Venezuela's 2nd try at getting #territorialdispute case with #Guyana thrown out, meaning it will go forward with ruling (eventually) on whether huge part of what's now governed as Guyana land is actually Venezuela's.

Besides being almost certain not to result in any actual transfer of land, #Lesotho politician's proposal to claim large parts of #SouthAfrica is also not expected to pass in legislature, and is reportedly "not especially popular" among the country's people. https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/why-lesotho-parliament-is-debating-reclaiming-land-south-africa-2023-03-30/

United Nations Digital Library System - Question of Basutoland, Bechuanaland and Swaziland.

Proposal for #Lesotho to initiate territorial dispute over large parts of #SouthAfrica says it relies on a 1962 UN resolution. That resolution advocates Lesotho's independence, but doesn't seem to imply it should have any more territory than it does today. https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/204509?ln=en
