In other news out of the Mexican Press, a Mexican newspaper has stated that the City Manager of an area called Mexico City has gotten into a parking dispute with the Embassy of Belize in Mexico. This stemmed from an incident that occurred earlier today.
It seems the city manager carried out an operation to have several traffic cones on the street in front of the Belize Embassy headquarters removed. They had been chained to the tree.
The Embassy of Belize as a result submitted a formal complaint to the Secretary of External Relations and requested the intervention of the federal agency to continue allowing them to place the traffic cones, which they have been doing as a form of security that the embassy says is granted to all other diplomatic missions in the country.
The topic has been gaining a lot of traction on Mexican twitter feeds. Some of which are in support of the City Manager, others whom are more sympathetic to the complaint made by the Belizean embassy.
Here is also were the City Manager responded in kind. He posted on his twitter feed a few hours ago saying and we quote, "Go to the SRE to complain about objects that block the road? A bit of "baloney" Belize."
The embassy insisted that at no time did the cones block the flow of traffic, and that they were well within their right as the cones were only used to separate vehicular spaces and secure parking spots for their diplomats.
The relevant authorities at the SRE have not yet responded to this debacle yet but from what we've gathered, this is not the first time that the City Manager's vigorous managerial approach has caused a civil conflict.
