UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Guyana used the United Nations as a forum to blast Venezuela on Tuesday, accusing the neighbouring oil powerhouse of "intimidation and aggression" related to a border dispute two days after the countries agreed to restore diplomatic ties.

In his speech at the U.N. General Assembly, Guyana's president David Granger accused his Venezuelan counterpart, Nicolas Maduro, of cross-border bullying.
