“Yesterday (Tuesday) a couple of congressmen were seen. I believe that it is not the task of congressmen to incite the population to take to the streets and cause damage to private property. Yesterday a shopping center was affected here, where liquor, cigarettes and other things were sold. That is not protesting and the work of congressmen is not that, ”he told the press.
boluarte He assured that the protesters seek to reach the front of Congress; therefore, they are in talks with the National Police of Peru (PNP) to be allowed access.
“People are requesting to advance as always to Abancay with Junín, they do not want to commit excesses (…) We are talking with the Police so that they are allowed to advance until the front of Congress, they will be calm, “he added.
The head of the Midis criticized the actions of some protesters and mentioned that although they are within their right to protest against the president, a criminal march would already be part of a confrontation.
“Okay, they cannot agree that Pedro Castillo has won the elections and that the president has had and still has some errors in the appointment of some ministers, which has led to us having four cabinets, but It is not the way to be able to call a criminal march because it is no longer a protest march, it is a confrontation march”, he asserted.
Finally, urged political leaders to show maturityregardless of the ideological line of each party.
“Enough of continuing to polarize the country, enough of wanting to have blood on the streets. Peru must demonstrate political maturity and this is where its political leaders have to demonstrate that maturity.. Enough of the arrogance, enough of wanting to manage as we please and I also mean all the political leaders: those of the right, center and left. Peru belongs to everyone and Peru needs everyone”, he concluded.
