What did Dina Boluarte say?
The president pointed out that the radical left has changed its discourse and asked the population not to be fooled.
“I know that now that space of that radical left has already changed its message. It no longer says, as at the beginning, that Dina Boluarte carried out a coup d’état and that Pedro Castillo will be reinstated in the Presidency, and “we are going to burn airports and public ministries and block highways.” That message is no longer. Now they are saying that I want to stay until 2026 to continue generating that political platform, ”he said.
He added that “it is not in my hands to resolve what they are proposing, the only thing that was in my hands was the advancement of elections and we already proposed it, it is only for Congress to ratify it.”
“Then they ask for a Constituent Assembly, but that does not pass through the hands of the Executive or Dina Boluarte. If it is with this pretext that they are taking you, brothers from those regions, they are deceiving you, they are lying to you, ”she reiterated.
He also stressed that this sector is asking for the release of Pedro Castillo, but “the issue is under judicial review and it is not in my hands either,” he said.

They know that this cannot be done, that is why they are deceiving you. Do not be fooled ”, she asked those who are abiding by the protest measures in some southern regions.
