The days have gone by and I have been able to see that he, in his own handwriting, calls me a ‘traitor’ and ‘usurper’. He knows that I don’t deserve those words, he knows of my total loyalty. I feel sorry for the way he writes and I did not value all the recommendations, suggestions, respect and affection that he had for him. I am very sorry that it has not been appreciated. In other words, all this time that I have been by President Castillo’s side, well, it has been, from my point of view, in vain.” Boluarte said to Willax.
