Castillo summoned the opposition to stop his impeachment request

The official added that “If you don’t want to talk, the intention of obstructing the government’s management is clear and not recognize the result of the ballot box. “

On November 25, 28 congressmen from the right-wing and opposition groups Advance Country, Popular Renewal and Popular Force (Fujimorism), presented a request for impeachment against Castillo in Congress, appealing to the constitutional cause of “moral incapacity.”

Leaders of those sectors, such as former presidential candidates Keiko Fujimori and Rafael López Aliaga (Popular Renewal), said last week that they will not attend the meeting, which will take place this Monday at 3.30 pm local time (5.30 pm in Argentina) at the Government Palace.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Justice and Human Rights, Aníbal Torres, said that Castillo “must talk with all the banks, even with Fuerza Popular. They cannot live forever with the fact that they lost the election and their existence will be pure hatred. and resentment. The only thing they do is damage the country. “

Legislators accuse Castillo of benefiting or benefiting friends from his position, amid a scandal of alleged acts of corruption for allegedly meeting irregularly with businessmen and officials.

The President, who took office in July, was also summoned by the Attorney General’s Office in the case of irregular military promotions.

The party bench Free Peru, which brought Castillo to the presidency, said Monday that he will vote against the vacancy request.

“Peru Libre strongly rejects the motion for presidential vacancy promoted and promoted by the fascist sectors of the country. It acknowledges having serious discrepancies with the caviar (sic) government of Pedro Castillo, but that does not justify being a participant in a coup against democracy” the group said in a statement.

Castillo already met on Friday with the congressional benches, in view of the debate and vote on Tuesday for the impeachment request.

On Saturday he had a meeting with his predecessor Francisco Sagasti (2020-2021), who became president after the dismissal of Martín Vizcarra (2018-2020).
