The protests against Dina Boluarte are registered nationwide
In her speech, the president ignored the main reason for the protests against her government, registered in various regions of the country. The manifestations reflect popular discontent for issues such as the repression of past manifestations, the energy crisis and the lack of justice for the victims of the protests of 2022 and 2023.
In July 2025, significant mobilizations were registered in Lima and provinces. Delegations of regions such as Puno, Ayacucho and Cusco arrived in the capital to demand justice for the deaths that occurred during the previous protests. These mobilizations included road blockages, shots of institutions and marches to the Congress of the Republic. In Lima, they concentrated on emblematic points such as Plaza Dos de Mayo and Barrios Altos, where the National Police deployed a wide security operation.
In addition, in Iquitos, during the visit of President Boluarte, thousands of people protested against their government, especially for the energy crisis that affects the region. The protesters demanded immediate solutions and criticized the lack of attention to their demands. The president responded to the protests indicating that her administration is willing to address the problems, but asked the population not to be used for political purposes, delegitimizing the fair claim of citizens.
These manifestations reflect a generalized discomfort in social sectors and regions of the country that demand deep changes in the management of Boluarte and Justice for the victims of repression, and that not only respond to a request for works, which, for the most part, continue paralyzed.
