Peru’s President Dina Boluarte announced on Friday the return of the country’s minister in Mexico. Boluarte mounted to the South American country’s administration on Dec. 7 after former President Pedro Castillo was impeached following an attempt to dissolve Congress. Boluarte charged with Lopez Obrador of backing Castillo’s attempt at a “coupd’etat”. “With his statements, Mr. Lopez violates the principle of transnational law aboutnon-interference in internal affairs, as well as those pertaining to the defense and creation of republic,” she said in a TV address.
Boluarte argued that reflections made before Friday by Mexico President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador about her administration go against the transnational right to non hindrance. Lopez Obrador, who has been one of Castillo’s most hot sympathizers along with leftist leaders in Bolivia, Argentina and Colombia, also appertained to Boluarte as a “spurious chairman”. Publicizing the minister’s pullout in a televised address, Boularte said “politic relations between Peru and Mexico are formally reduced to the position of charge d’affaires”.
She added that Lopez Obrador has “decided to support the achievement d’etat carried out by the now former chairman Pedro Castillo on December 7, 2022”. “I explosively reject the reflections made moment by the chairman of Mexico on Peru’s internal affairs and his repeated inferior questioning of the indigenous and popular origins of my government,” she said. Speaking on Friday she indicted her Mexican counterpart of supporting what she has described as an tried achievement by Mr Castillo. “Mr Lopez has decided to seriously affect the bicentennial relations of collective respect, fellowship, cooperation, and desire for integration that have historically united Peru and Mexico,” she said.
The recall of the minister comes two months after Mexico’s minister to Peru objected after after Mexico granted political shelter to Mr Castillo’s family. Mr Obrador isn’t the only indigenous leader to be critical about Mr Castillo’s junking- Bolivia, Argentina and Colombia have also prompted Peru to reinstate him.
