The Popular Action congressman, Edwin Martinezalso considered that the legislator of the Alliance for Progress, Gladys Echaizwould be the best alternative to chair the Board of Directors of Congress, replacing María del Carmen Alva.
In statements to Canal N, he asserted that it is up to APP to lead Parliament ahead of the start of the second legislative period due to the agreement that exists between several benches, apart from the leaked audio of Lady Camones, in which she is heard qualifying Acción Popular as a “criminal gang”.
Along these lines, he considered that the Board of Directors must be multiparty and have the participation of the right-wing factions: Avanza País, Popular Renewal and Popular Force.

“There is a compromise between the benches, so it is up to the Alliance for Progress to lead the board of directors, regardless of what Lady Camones said,” assured.
“I would like Gladys Echaíz to be the president of Congress, she is a very suitable person to lead the Board of Directors”, said.
“It should be a multi-party table, with people from Renovación Popular, Avanza País and Fuerza Popular, there should be no political differences. Popular Force has very prepared people“, held.
