Illegal settlers evacuate Edwards Central

In matters of diplomacy it sometimes turns out that no action is the best action to take. That’s what has apparently happened in the case of the illegal Guatemalan settlement at Edwards Central in Toledo. While both governments nitpicked over how to get rid of the settlers, who had crossed the border in search of land to farm, it seems that the pioneers got tired of waiting and just left. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the exodus began three weeks ago, and the last two families departed today. Twenty-three rudimentary buildings were dismantled by the BDF and it is understood that no compensation was paid to families by the Guatemalan government, which was kept fully informed of the process.
