American history professor at Unesp Alberto Aggio assesses that instability in Peru should continue under the command of Dina Boluarte.
On Wednesday (7), then-president Pedro Castillo tried to dissolve parliament and call elections.
However, he was removed from office by Congress, with 101 votes in favor, 6 against and 10 abstentions.
Castillo was eventually detained by the Peruvian police.
In an interview with CNN Radio Aggio explained that vice-president Dina Boluarte, who took over from Pedro Castillo, must not have an easy life.
“The instability tries to continue with her because she was elected on Castillo’s ticket, she is a lawyer, she has not held any political office, she does not have that experience,” he said.
According to the professor, “she is an outsider like Castillo, and equal to him from a political point of view.”
Even so, he assesses that Dina “was smart in calling for the unity of the country’s democratic forces in defense of institutionality.”
“This was a beautiful first step”, he defined.
According to Aggio, it is not possible to achieve success as “Peruvian society is highly fragmented.”
The specialist assesses that, in Peru, “contemporary problems are mixed with structural ones”, which generates “a complex situation that does not always reveal politicians capable of reading this and putting forward proposals and expansion of support that take the country forward”.
