The previous Sunday, Alva had spoken on television about the possibility of assuming the presidency of the Republic, as successor if Castillo leaves. “All the challenges that arise in life, as the presidency of Congress was presented to me, we have to take them, but it is never a matter of just one person. There are also agreements in Congress”, he said on ATV.

This foundation, which claims that it “defends freedoms” and identifies with political liberalism, in Peru it is led by the German Jörg Dehnert.

Carrillo is director of institutional alliances for the Taxpayers Association of Peru, which manages the website Piensa.pe, where they campaigned against Castillo with an investment of more than half a million soles in Facebook advertising and promoted the false accusations of electoral fraud by Keiko and her team.

The Friedrich Naumann also brought the Venezuelan politician Leopoldo López to Peru for an event with Keiko. There, the foreign leader called on Peruvians to vote for her shortly before the second round election.

This German foundation also organized an event in Ecuador during the electoral campaign in which Mario Vargas Llosa participated. and it was intended to take Keiko so that former right-wing Latin American presidents express their support for him. Due to her judicial process, the then candidate could only connect via the internet.

In June 2021, the Germany-Peru Solidarity Network Association sent an open letter to this foundation in protest “for the direct interference of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation (FFN) in this second round of the Peruvian presidential elections in favor of Keiko Fujimori”.

The Friedrich Naumann also finances with funds the Invest Institute, of the economist Daniel Córdova. He collaborated with César Acuña in the first round and then became one of the most intense promoters of allegations of electoral fraud that threatened to sabotage the electoral result.

The Center for Public Policy Innovation, a partner of Friedrich Naumann that co-financed the meeting of opposition congressmen at the Miraflores hotel, is directed by two collaborators of Fujimori: Carlos Hamman and Gustavo Nokomura, both former members of the Keiko Fujimori’s technical team in elections.

This center also received 388,500 soles of the money that the Peruvian State has granted to Fuerza Popular as a public contribution, according to the reports made to the ONPE (National Office of Electoral Processes). According to the documents, the Center for Public Policy Innovation provided “training services in entrepreneurship and innovation and in leadership and empowerment of women.”

Now, this center organizes meetings of opponents of the Government to talk about a possible impeachment of the head of state elected by the population in elections in which Keiko Fujimori was defeated, despite allegations of fraud without evidence.

Path under the magnifying glass

The Naumann Foundation assures that the meeting of congressmen was a simple workshop. “As part of a series of seminars that we have held since March 2021, a workshop was held on February 9 whose theme was the discussion of the political crisis in Peru during its 200-year history, on the occasion to promote spaces for dialogue and debate between various specialists and politicians who have closely followed the problem, “he says in a statement. And that these events “are always open to all parties and the various congressional benches.”

This German foundation, in addition to participating in events in support of Keiko Fujimori in the electoral campaign, sponsors questionable right-wing initiatives such as an internet show by controversial activist Vanya Thais, among other.

reactions

Hannibal Torres, Prime Minister

“And at every moment (the opposition congressmen) they demand a vacancy, they want a vacancy. They work day and night for the vacancy. I mean they are coup plotters and yet they call themselves democrats.”

Messiah Guevara, president of Popular Action

“It is urgent that Alva explain to the country about what happened, because it affects governance and the image of Popular Action. Most of us believe that this is not the time to vacate the president or close Congress.”

Ruth Luque, spokesperson for Together for Peru

“Holding workshops by liberal NGOs is not questioned. What is questioned is that in these events, under the name of democracy, legal paths are paved for the vacancy of a president.
