UWI International Relations Expert Dr Anthony Gonzales says that the situation between Guyana and Venezuela could place this country in a difficult position.
Speaking on the Power Breakfast Show this morning Dr Anthony said that T&T has interests both with Guyana and Venezuela.
He said T&T has to be cautious with steps made concerning the impasse between the two countries.
He maintained that at the moment T&T would have to follow the evolution of the crisis.
He said the position of T&T now is that it supports Guyana and Caricom’s stance which is to avoid war.
He stated that the ideal position would be to hope for a resolution between the two parties.
He disclosed however that going forward presents the real challenge.
He said that The US interest in the matter is also a concern for T&T.
He noted that T&T has ties with the US in terms of National Security and energy and while relations at this time are good that country’s interest in Guyana could have an effect on T&T.
