Arista vs. Safe
He who does know speaks
Asked about the intemperate comments of the Minister of Economy, José Arista, against the president of the Fiscal Council, Alonso Segura – and all because he warned that “the provisions have not been taken to comply with a responsible fiscal trajectory” – the president of the Central Bank of Reserve, Julio Velarde, distanced himself and said that he would not get involved in that discussion. However, he added that “obviously, I am not going to describe Alonso Segura as inept.” Put pen to paper, Arista, it was said by someone who knows.
Betssy Chavez
18 more months?
The Public Ministry has requested the Judiciary to extend the preventive detention of the former coup leader Pedro Castillo, Betssy Chávez, for an additional 18 months for her participation in the failed coup of December 7, 2022. The former congresswoman is also currently serving that restrictive measure since June 20 of last year, which expired last Thursday. Let’s see what happens.
New Peru
Without resources
And to celebrate the end of the year, in Nuevo Perú they have organized a fellowship party for Sunday the 29th “until the last consequences.” But it seems that in Verónika Mendoza’s group – yes, the one that only appears when she can take political advantage of a situation – there are not many funds, so it will be a lot of dancing. There, they say, there is no money for cocktails.
