Since Dina Boluarte took office, the country has been shaken by protesters demanding her resignation, fresh elections and a new constitution
Save time by listening to our audio articles as you multitaskSince Ms Boluarte took office, the country has been shaken by protesters demanding her resignation, fresh elections and a new constitution. Indigenous and rural people, among whom Mr Castillo campaigned with promises to upend the status quo, are particularly angry. His 16 months in power were marked by corruption scandals, ineptitude and chaos. But many of those who voted for him blame the elites in Lima, the capital.
Ms Boluarte has described the protesters as a “group of radicals making the country bleed”. On January 14th she extended a state of emergency in much of the country. Extremists have no doubt been involved in the riots. Mr Castillo and his leftist allies have fanned the flames by insisting he is the victim of a coup. But Gonzalo Banda, an analyst, says that Ms Boluarte is underestimating the muscle of indigenous and rural groups, especially in the south.
