Dina Boluarte, president of Peru, assured in a television message that she will not resign from her post. Similarly, she said that her government had “nothing to hide,” so she received the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights to make a report.
Through a television message on the night of this Friday, January 13, Dina Boluarte, president of Peru, regretted the acts of violence that have occurred in the country and asked for “pardon” for this situation. “I cannot stop reiterating my regret for the deaths of Peruvian men and women in the protests,” she said.
In his message, he stated that he will continue to “promote the peace dialogue” to overcome the social and political crisis that Peru is experiencing, whose protests have left a balance of 49 deaths in a month, of which 21 occurred in the last week.
Too condemned acts of violence against animals: What is the fault of the horses or the dogs that have been mercilessly thrown from the bridges and have been cruelly killed?
To those who ask for his resignation, he told them that he will not. “I will not resign. My commitment is with Peru and not with this tiny group that is making the country bleed,” she said.
In this sense, asked Congress to advance the date to vote the bill presented by the Executive to hold general elections in April 2024. “This president does not want to stay in power,” he reaffirmed.
Boluarte assured that “The country deserves to know the truth objectively and quickly” about the deaths registered in the citizen protests and welcomed the investigations opened by the Public Ministry to “identify those responsible.”
The president announced that her country received the Delegation of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. “We have nothing to hide as a Government (…) We will be attentive to the final report of this Commission,” he reiterated.
He requested, however, “that everything be investigated” in reference to the alleged “foreign inciters and infiltrators” who, in his opinion, are “responsible for violent acts.”
To those who demand the release of the former president of Peru Pedro Castillo, they tell them that she cannot do it because “I am not a judge, nor a prosecutor.”
