President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed her administration's decision to reverse the concession to operate the Bicentennial Park at the former facilities of the March 18 refinery. She asserted that the Executive Branch's Legal Counsel is analyzing, in coordination with the Secretariat of Agrarian, Territorial, and Urban Development (Sedatu), the legal route to implement this decision.

In his press conference, he said the idea is that once the concession—granted at the end of Enrique Peña Nieto's six-year term—is canceled, the park will be operated by the federal Ministry of Culture and the Mexico City government.

-Is there an estimated date?

−The Institute for the Administration and Appraisal of National Assets and Sedatu can provide information on everything related to the park, but the goal is for it to be operated by the Ministry of Culture.
