The ex-president Martin Vizcarra detailed a series of key points related to his management and asserted that He made various mistakes during his time at the helm of the Executive, which led to his vacancy in 2020. In addition, he revealed that his actions generated the discontent of political groups such as Keiko Fujimori and the APRA.
“I have no doubt that there is a political spectrum and also an economic spectrum (they hate it). It’s that I’ve made decisions that no one had ever made before. One of them was to dissolve Congress. (…) A party that had 73 congressmen, today has gone wrong in the elections. Obviously, they don’t forgive him. Fujimorism does not forgive me for the fact that its debacle began with the decision I made,” said the former president in an interview for N channel.
Vizcarra Cornejo also specified that the same case and rejection towards him was manifested by the five congressmen belonging to APRA in said management; in which, according to Vizcarra, “They were in cahoots with Fujimorism and managed Congress.”
And in the economic aspect, the former head of state specified that there were measures adopted during his administration that were uncomfortable for an economic group.
In this sense, Vizcarra recalled an opportunity in which he met with the leader of Fuerza Popular, today investigated for money laundering, Keiko Fujimori. She showed him her uneasiness regarding the law of the octagons that was approved during the government of the former president and the reason why the Fujimori policy requested the departure of the then Minister of Health, Pilar Mazzetti.
“I remember that in a conversation I had with the leader Keiko Fujimori, this issue was discussed and she asked me to change the Minister of Health because that rule was going to harm the companies in that sector that produce food”he pointed.
However, the politician specified that the biggest of his mistakes during his administration was not having sought alliances after the closing of Congress in September 2019, which generated an imitation of the Legislative dissolved in the parliamentary elections of that same year.
“I did not make any alliance to reach that transitional Congress with a bench that represents the sentiment of the Executive. That gave rise to an imitation in the elected Congress, of the dissolved Congress and the confrontation continued “he concluded.
