The current legislature ends on June 15, so the next one would start on July 27. Apparently there was a desire to Maria del Carmen Alva to go for re-election, but this would have meant breaking the agreement assumed –in mid-2021– that People’s Action would have the presidency of the Board of Directors during the first year and then an Alliance for Progress (APP) candidacy would be supported.
As La República was able to learn, in Alliance for Progress names are handled Eduardo Salhuana, Gladys Echaiz, Hector Acuna Y Robert Chiabra as possible heads of list for the Board of Directors. Of them, the names of Echaíz and would generate more consensus among the opposition.
