Faced with calling for protests from informal transport companies because of the increase in fuel, the President of Peru peter burg declared a state of emergency. About, Enzo Elguera contextualized: “The political situation is very complicated for our country, which has already changed its president four times in recent times. The opposition did not accept the result of the last elections and wanted to propose an impeachment procedure, but did not have the necessary votes.”
“Adding to yesterday’s protests was social dissatisfaction that wants to remove the President and that there should be new general elections. Subsequently, the parliament met and there were new advances in the pursuit of governability, the banks decided to put the social agenda ahead of the political agenda,” added political analyst and CEO of polling institute Imasolu. Regarding the internal tensions in the ruling party, he explained: “The Peruvian left has a serious problem because the most extreme have a very bad relationship with the center; They fight each other for power and end up weakening the government, which has to turn to the right to reach an agreement.”
Meanwhile, he stressed Peruvians’ uneasiness: “Citizens are very sensitive to the protests and the reason for them to stop is that effective measures are being taken.” And he continued: “The President is giving false messages, with comings and goings, although he has pushed certain regulations that, with rising fuel prices and staple foods, cool fundamental problems for the population and its mood, lest the political crisis escalate any further”.
Asked about the role of the opposition, he clarified: “Right-wing parliamentarians have been seen promoting vandalism marches, and Fujimorism in particular did not appear at a dialogue table. They didn’t even want to sit down because they said it made no sense.” On the other hand, he referred to the government’s challenge: “They know what to do: they can’t appoint officials who will later be asked about their CVs. After common sense, lock It must lend a stronger hand to its allies, it must have its own filter.
And in addition, Elguera highlighted the large number of citizens who took part in the marches: “They were carried out not only by the popular classes, but also by the middle and upper classes. The catalyst was largely the rise in prices and fuel, but also the government’s announcement that it would raise the minimum wage, and businessmen opposed this, arguing that this measure would encourage more informality than in 1970. current percent. Finally, he commented on the regional situation: “In South America, politicians are not working with the necessary political marketing instruments to prevent escalations, since, for example, prices have risen with the pandemic and that is nothing new.” (www.REALPOLITIK.com .ar)
