The Ministry of Foreign Relations led by Felipe Solá suffered a new loss after the departure of Alicia Castro before the Senate treated her statement as ambassador to Russia.
This time it is
Silvia Vázquez
, the director of Environmental Affairs, who left office slipping criticism of government policies.
"I present today my unwavering resignation from the position of Director of Environmental Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship," Vázquez began the message he published on social networks.
The now former official highlighted the Escazú agreement (on access to information, public participation and access to justice in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean) as one of the achievements of her administration but at the same time slipped criticism of Government policies.

"The debate on what the productive development model should be for the solution to the systemic crisis in which climate change puts us, aggravated by Covid 19, has just begun, and to be loyal to my convictions and to the people

"he launched.
The Foreign Ministry had been at the center of the political scene when Alicia Castro resigned from the embassy in Moscow due to differences with the government's foreign policy.
On that occasion, Castro highlighted: "Today I want to present my resignation as ambassador, because I do not agree with the current foreign relations policy."
At that time, even President Alberto Fernández asked him to review his decision but he was unsuccessful.
