The decision on the purchase has caused a sharp critique of the coalition partner of Sumar, and one of the groups within Sumar, Izquierd Unid, threatened withdrawal from the Minority Coalition Government. The Interior Ministry responded that the State Prosecutor informed them that the termination of the contract meant to pay the full amount without receiving the shipment.
