“It was exciting,” said Pedro Pablo Kuczynski his encounter with him Pope Francisthere in September 2017. The former president points out that he was in search of the Holy Father to invite him to visit Peru and that he talked with him about 20 minutes. PPK confesses that he took advantage of this dialogue with the late Pontiff to ask for several tips, including Alberto Fujimori’s release, at that time, imprisoned in the Barbadillo prison. Francisco did not hesitate to tell him to leave him free.
“I talked in his office, I told him about what was happening in the country and even asked for advice on several issues, including Fujimori’s release … It seemed to me that 15 years was already enough for him, I am not a judge. In the end the Pope told me” I released me, Che. “But I knew it was a spiny and complicated issue,” said the ex -president in RPP.
Kuczynski added that on this subject he also consulted with the newly deceased Nobel Prize for Literature, Mario Vargas Llosa, and that he was blunt in his response: “I don’t even think about,” the writer told him, who was bothered with the then Peruvian president.
Francisco visited Peru between January 18 and 21, 2018 and toured Lima, Trujillo and Puerto Maldonado.
