Mohamed Irfaan Ali, the president of Guyana, said: "I have spoken to the [UN] secretary general and several leaders, alerting them of these dangerous developments and the desperate actions of the president, Maduro." He was speaking in a television broadcast late on Tuesday as he informed the nation, which has a population of about 800,000, of Maduro's latest steps to creating a new Venezuelan state in Guyana.
Ali's comments came after Maduro announced moves to formalise a referendum, held last Sunday, in which voters backed plans to recognise a 62,000 sq mile oil-rich swath of Guyanese jungle as Venezuelan. The Venezuelan president said he had ordered a law to be drafted recognising a new state - Guayana Esequiba - where the English-speaking residents would be given Venezuelan national ID cards.
