“Removing the current board would mean stopping Petroperú’s process of coming cleanputting the country’s public finances at serious risk, since the company’s huge losses will continue to be covered by the taxes of all Peruvians,” the union said in a statement.

The CCL asked the President of the Council of Ministers, Gustavo Adrianzén, and the Ministers of Economy and Finance, José Arista, and of Energy and Mines, Rómulo Mucho, to support the current board of directors of Petroperú so that it can carry out a profound restructuring of the company.

“Allowing them to leave their posts would be an irresponsible act of inaction by President Dina Boluarte’s government, to the detriment of all Peruvians,” the CCL stressed.
