In response, Mexico plans to send a team to investigate the situation further.<\/p>\n<p>The Mexican Foreign Minister, Alicia Barcena, has raised the issue of these buoys potentially violating the water treaty of 1944. This treaty primarily focuses on the use of water from the Rio Grande, but it could be affected if the new barriers, intended to prevent border crossings via the water, disrupt the river&#8217;s flow. Barcena sent the complaint on June 26, even before the buoys were deployed.<\/p>\n<h3>Mission to Verify Location<\/h3>\n<p>Barcena announced that a territorial inspection mission will be sent to determine the exact location of the buoys. This topographical survey aims to ensure that the buoys do not cross into Mexican territory. The mission will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/report-533-million-facebook-users-phone-numbers-and-other-data-leaked-online-available-to-hackers-for-free\/\" title=\"Report: 533 Million Facebook Users\u2019 Phone Numbers And Other Data Leaked Online, Available To Hackers For Free\">provide valuable information<\/a> to address the concerns raised by Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Barcena expressed her disappointment with the addition of more razor wire along a low-lying island near Eagle Pass, Texas. Governor Greg Abbott referred to this tactic as a means to prevent people from crossing the middle part of the Rio Grande River and entering Texas during a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/don-lemon-spends-unemployment-in-the-hamptons-after-being-ousted-from-cnn\/\" title=\"Don Lemon enjoys his time in the Hamptons following his departure from CNN.\">recent television interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Legal Battle and Border Security Funding<\/h3>\n<p>Governor Abbott is already facing a lawsuit from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mexico-files-complaint-against-greg-abbotts-buoys-in-rio-grande\/\" title=\"Mexico complains about Greg Abbott's buoys in the Rio Grande.\">local kayaking business owner<\/a> who claims that the buoys hinder his ability to conduct tours. In response, the governor has threatened to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>The deployment of these buoys, costing approximately $1 million for a length of about 1,000 feet, is part of the border security measures funded by the Texas legislature. The state allocated $5.1 billion towards securing the border.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Governor Abbott has noted that the barriers have led to an increase in border crossings in New Mexico, Arizona, and California.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">Click here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mexico has lodged a complaint with Texas about buoys in the Rio Grande.
