(BBC News) ECUADOR’S ambassador to Lima, Rodrigo Riofrio, has resigned after being involved in a brawl with two women in a supermarket in the Peruvian capital.
The brawl between the ambassador and two female shoppers led to diplomatic tensions between the two neighbours.
Both countries had threatened to expel each other’s ambassador, but on Monday agreed to name new people to the jobs.

Ecuador’s President, Rafael Correa, said he “wouldn’t let an incident in a supermarket” ruin bilateral relations.
Tensions had increased between Lima and Quito after Mr Riofrio was accused of assaulting two women, Cristina Castro and her daughter Cynthia Nunez, in a supermarket on 21 April.
Insults traded
Ms Castro said Mr Riofrio had become annoyed when they were served first and had insulted them.
She said her daughter had slapped the ambassador in the face in response, who in turn hit her and her daughter with a magazine.
