A reminder of these words chap. Indians are living to regret them words.

The same people, who were quite arrogant when they figured the PPP would never lose, are screaming and wailing now.

Should Venezuela progress with an invasion, Britain will immediately defend Guyana.

Of note ... while countries have become independent, there is a formal document stating clearly that Britain will defend any former colony.

It depend of what the US_of_A decides on this matter.

Note.

Define "defense".  Understand that if it is in the agreement the UK will provide the minimal assistance that it will need to be in compliance.

I am also skeptical that there also isn't a time limit on this obligation.

IF indeed this obligation exists.

Note.  2 helicopters and 20 advisors is defense.

When Pakistan battled against what became Bangladesh, did the UK defend the latter?  I don't think that they did.

Your choice to be skeptical on facts that exist.

The reason why the UK sent us packing is so that they would NOT have such obligations indefinitely.

Venezuela invades and David Cameron will condemn their acts in the UN. With many in the UK wanting to leave the EU, do you really think that any UK politician is going to risk UK lives and taxpayer funds for some distant land that most British know little of?

"Britain will defend any former colony" . . .

in what fantasy universe does does such risibly slack language rise to a binding "formal" commitment to "immediately defend Guyana" by a now 3rd rate military power with vestigial interest in an unimportant former possession thousands of miles away?

and how does the contradictory "It depend of what the US_of_A decides on this matter" factor into all this?

banna, tek another pill and get some sleep yeh

The documents when each country obtained independence from Britain will indicate the respective inter-relationship.

Mars is right. Britain is a no show when it comes to Military action but will join America in imposing sanctions.  America will put some serious economic sanctions on Venezuela.

Rather than your uninformative tantrum, you would look better if you provided proof.

Now why would the UK care so much about a former colony, which provides limited current benefit to them that they would sacrifice British lives, and spend  British taxpayer funds?

Guyana provides no benefit to the UK. The Dominican Republic, T&T, and Cuba are the only Caribbean nations of interest to the UK.

Yes if MadBURRO is in power.  If not, the USA will issue a press release "deploring" such actions, and will urge the combatants to seek a peaceful solution.

Colombia will be more interested, given their own border problems with Venezuela. Maybe Brazil as well.

Britain has the agreement for all former colonies.

Britain has the agreement for all former colonies.

the current UK administration, is dealing with Brexit, and many Britons want out of the EU.

Now with all of that you really think that they would endorse British lives and British tax revenues spent to defend some impoverished swamp located 5,000 miles away from them?  This involvement not offering any benefits to them as there is no benefit to the UK for this engagement.

Britain will do what it is presently doing and will defend the territorial integrity of Guyana in international forums.  If you seek more, you will be very sad.
