The situation in Peru is becoming increasingly violent. The revolts registered in the country after the self-coup promoted by its former president, Pedro Castillowho was succeeded by the current president In Boluarte, are leading the country to a situation of collapse. Thus, Santiago Abascal and another 117 international parliamentarians have sent a letter promoted by Forum Madrid to the Secretary General of the Organization of American States, Luis Almagro.
In the letter denouncing his deep “concern” for the “destabilization process that Peru is experiencing” and that, according to their understanding, is being “promoted from abroad”. “The leading role of the controversial Bolivian is evident Evo Morales in the vandal protests that are carried out from the southeast of the country to Lima, with the aim of overthrowing the constitutional government of Dina Boluarte”, the text collects.
In addition to the leader of Vox, the letter is also signed by the MEP Hermann Tertsch and the party leader in Madrid, Dew Monastery. There are also other prominent names from different countries such as the Argentines Javier Miley y victoria villaruelthe Colombians miguel uribe y Maria Fernanda Cabal o Charles Fidanza of Italy.
The letter warns Almagro of the “serious behavior of supposedly democratic governments -such as those of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Honduras and Mexico- that implicitly support this destabilization, by falsely stating that Pedro Castillo was the victim of a “coup d’état”. , when it is public and notorious that the now former president wanted to dissolve Congress to perpetuate himself in power.”
In this sense, they recall the international condemnation that has occurred with other protests that have been carried out against left-wing governments, such as in Brazil. “It is unacceptable that, for some governments attached to the OAS, certain protests are “bad”, when they affect their allies (Brazil case); and others are “good”, because they serve to overthrow their ideological adversaries (Peru case). This double standard constitutes a serious threat to our democratic systems and a risk to the peace and stability of our continent,” they point out.
For this reason, they ask the OAS to “condemn and condemn” what happened “before they achieve their disastrous objectives.” Among the signatories there are deputies and senators also from Honduras, El Salvador and Peru itself.
