Congress now wants to bring forward the end of Pedro Castillo’s mandate

Peru Libre has not been the only one that presented a project to advance elections. At the same time, the conservative We can Peru -four deputies- did the same, in a text in which they set July 28, 2023 as the end date of Castillo’s mandate and two days before that of the parliamentarians.

According to the congresswoman from Peru Libre, one of the motivations for the proposal she has presented is the continuous attack by the opposition on President Castillo and the threats of a motion of censure. “If that is the intention, then we all leave.”Dávila warned in statements to the newspaper ‘La República’.

In that sense, Dávila wanted to clarify that this initiative “is not” for Pedro Castillo, but for the attacks of the opposition congressmen. According to the polls, he points out, “Congress is deplored by the great majority of society. Now, we are going to debate and see what position the other benches take.”
