LOW PASS

Carrying five tax investigations –some of which have accused him of being the head of a criminal organization–; two vacancy motions against him; two characters from his closest environment who are still fugitives and a third –Bruno Pacheco– already collaborating with the justice system; and four ministers censored by Congress, Castillo has anticipated that today there will be “surprises” in his message to the Nation before the Plenary.

Thus, and with 75% disapproval, according to the same pollster, the head of state is completing his first year in office, which has been marked by political scandals derived, among other things, from his inability to correctly elect his main collaborators, thereby generating a takeover that has paralyzed the country.
