Pedro Castillo: review the subtle way in which the archbishop would have asked the president for his resignation

As is tradition on every July 28, the Monsignor Carlos Castillo Mattasoglio made his tedum traditional for the mass of National Holidays. In this message, he reflected on the political situation in Peru and would have taken the opportunity to subtly tell the President Pedro Castillo take a step to the side.

The Archbishop recalled the letter sent by Don José de San Martín to Simón Bolívar on August 29, 1822in which he informed him that he was resigning from the campaign to liberate Peru to make way for the Venezuelan general:

YOU CAN SEE: How many ministers did the first year of Pedro Castillo’s government have and who were they?

“Don José understood that in order to achieve the common good of Peru, an adequate and fair act of detachment had to be carried out that would allow an effective action that would culminate the war. For this reason, he decided something even deeper: to withdraw, to make way for whoever had the forces prepared so that the republican libertarian process would not go backwards.”, mentioned Castillo Mattasoglio

Subsequently, the Mgr he prepared to read verbatim a fragment of the letter:

“I am intimately convinced that whatever the vicissitudes of the present war, the independence of America is irrevocable; but I am also convinced that its prolongation will cause the ruin of their peoples, and it is a sacred duty for the men to whom their destinies are entrusted to avoid the continuation of such evils”.
