Dina Boluarte sang victory

after the failure of the takeover of Lima, which was not considered a mass march and which also degenerated into a pitched battle led by the most radical, who tried to pounce on the reviled Congress.

"The situation is under control," said the president in her appearance before the country, backed by her most important ministers but without counting on the fact that the fight between indigenous people and Protestants has not ended.

Not much less.

"

continue with the peaceful mobilizations until she resigns from her position," replied Félix Suasaca, one of the community leaders of the Puno border, a region that concentrates a good part of the fatalities from the conflict generated in December after the failed coup d'état by the now imprisoned

The failure of the first indigenous day in Lima, however, has not separated Boluarte from the crossroads in which she has been trapped since the first day of her mandate, on December 7.

"

That is, to demand a board of directors in the Congress of national consensus, not only among congressmen, and also to agree on the isolation of the violent with intransigent agendas. The government quickly lost viability, even more so if it decides to ally itself with its political enemy (the right) after being unfairly branded as a usurper", contrasted the sociologist Juan Luis Dammert.
