george mason university. a very warm welcome to all of you. so power, let me start with you beyond the constitutional issues. what is the root of all of these problems, and why have people so many people come out into the streets in support of castillo? in middle people are angry with a point patient at all seems 2016. we have 6 president. i do said, and if, because a 2 crisis in one, the 1st is a corruption, it because only express in front to sell someone until 2020 we're investigating by level hospital by to receive bright front or the red resilient company. and they don't want to be in jail the, the one to b, b, i in front of the,

just these. so they bush in the congress. a lot of a lot of power to, to take out the president that was in the moment a bit about which is key. and then with that, with that, and then the to start all these war a, in where the politician are disconnected from the people are. now a is really now that they be chance are a, are disconnected from the in front of people. because they don't understand that they don't want it, they don't, they want a new election. they don't want to see the people the congressman doing that. they always do personal affairs. and in the beginning, the never lot of it, the president key has made a daniels aligns with armed forces to remain in power. she

has a den 98 years in a breast then and we have ha, 2022 people is dead and is emitted in, in and for. but who that president it is. it continues to empower not a body racer unable to develop her that she's wrong. it is when when we're talking about right now, she's talking she's doing now press conference and she says that she, she will continue. you will remain in power and she has her. she was lead a, a come by and by the army. and he said really than yours, dad, because i seen is really similar situation that happened in bolivia when janet on yes. do the same scene. and she was a, with a, with the armed forces to, to remain in power. and i s t,

these did who we are. and i really, really, really dart situation from blue abbey as far, hey, how do you see the situation that's playing out in peru right? now and do you fear a return to a. busy more bleak past in the country's history. yes, i agree. get a title with powell. i will, i to what to what she has said is that we're talking about the grievances which god, they back long before mr. castillo was even a candidate. these are all grievances at people in the countryside, in this particular case. now your culture of hot, when any, if we mustn't forget that are your coach or what the center of the activities of the shining past that cold like maoist, a rebel movement in that which in the 1980s started a war against waste, a war against the peruvian state with dire consequences for the peruvian society. and they said hello, he all history neglect. and i would say that the anger is that right now, concentrated on congress, president bowler, it just,

not long before we went on our to do this program gave a speech where she accused congress, i'm not fulfilling that commitment by not approving early elections. their initial proposal for april 2024, moved back to december 2023. and they rejected these for different reasons. some people from the left or some people from the right rejected a border against these. and does want to exacerbate the situation in peru, in the case of, for example, your culture you mentioned earlier today in your report or color who are with reagan, our governor, for your co trunk? yes. a look, lima doesn't seem to care about what's going on here. the room, yes. a die here, and they don't seem to do anything about that anita, big congress to do something about this. and in this piece that are pretty similar to gape, not long ago, just before we started talking, she would accuse a congress of not fulfilling the commitment i, she appeal to the community just in the contest beginning keisha, which is the language that in my warranty, of indigenous people speak and the indian region of peru, so he's appealing to the grass roots to say, look,

is probably violet. many of these violence is perpetrated by an organized groups. nothing to do with the situation, improve bases, stop this, i want to talk to you. i want to start solving the problem. of course you won't have time to solve all this bonus in the time the remains of her monday because we expect that the elijah would be call. now that dispute of congress, her willis has said that they are going to extend the cover legislature in order to be able to debate this issue of the early election. now the court is very much in that story. they're both very much in the court of the peruvian congress. but if we're, after, has said that an 83 percent off people according to a reliable opinion policy that we want the election. so that's where the beginning of trying to find some way to come to situation improve would be in congress boating for early elation because that's where my years of people want improve all what the station is going to escalate. and we have to be worried about what would happen. some come has been restored by the place like in very high, i mean,

the army and it, and in, in the streets. and sort of doing police work. it more something the peruvian c as you know, kindly because of all experiences in our history. so in that respect, the fugitive could get worse, but congress could stop helping sotheby's falling by voting for early election in december 2023. our own saga problems, which i said they but what boy, but be focused here but equal to start. it could be able to start, let's get geometry, bud sir, take on. they say, well, where does the current president dina blo artie fit into the she she's now the president as a result of a pedro castillo being, being pinched and removed from office. she, she has the kind of tread carefully here that doesn't she, i a are early elections. the solution to this? oh, i think early elections are the only solution to this. 85 percent of peruvians have said consistently that they want new elections and that's not a new demand for months. peruvians have been demanding that the friends in spanish

kids have. i and those everyone leave everyone out. they want a new elections for the president and for the congress. now that president has to, you has been removed from office. the demand for a new new elections has grown even stronger. so i think that is front and center. so to as are your other guys have noted, president below, aren't they this morning? pressed congress to vote in favor of convening new elections after yesterday's vote in which then they could not agree on this platform. but it's a little bit like asking the fox to take care of the hands. right. the congress is the central problem in peru today. and so it, it becomes a real problem asking this congress run by which is dominated by a coalition of extreme right wing movements to do this. and it is also curious to note that in yesterday's boat,

the fuji maury block loaded entirely in favor of convening early elections, which has led some folks to speculate some kind of alliance between boulevard bay and the faruqi. maurice does, it's unclear to me what this means, but i think that the 1st thing we might say about that is that the full, he modi's does think that if there are new elections, then their candidate cake of would. you maury, the daughter, a former dictator, alberta hood you maury, who was currently in prison for human rights violations, and corruption would be well poised to win. so there is an incredible amount at stake here, dena malott the could also resign and that will if i not, if i'm not misunderstood, i would like apollo as to correct me if i'm wrong. but i think that if she resigned, it would automatically trigger early elections without the reforms in that i think

a lot of people believe or necessary, but it would at least break the deadlock that the current congress has on the situation in the congress has behaved in ways that are absolutely abysmal from, from the very beginning of the pedal castillo government. this congress, the especially the right, when groups has denied the legitimacy of the castillo government, they claim that he actually lost the elections, which he won, though by a slim margin, saying that there had been fraud. they tried to go to the only asked a man at the oas, recognized for that. they never demonstrated with any proof that there was fraud, but they continued to maintain this discourse. they tried repeatedly to have president custeel removed from office using this very vague clause in the constitution are called moral incapacity, which they've interpreted as they see fit. and they've taught other mechanisms to get him removed from office. and they have been kind of pressing down on him from the very beginning to limit his government to obstruct his government. and now that

he's gone on, they find me feel that they are the victors and they have the you know, that, that the world is there oyster so to speak. so this is really where the problem lies. and the question is, i mean with today's announcement, i sort of expected to hear the level aren't they resigned this morning when i heard she was going to speak given that there as are your other guests have noted 21 people have been killed in the past 10 days in st, in protests by police most by police bullets along that is a huge number of people in what are mostly peaceful manner. manifestations being killed. i live result of plus, put some of that back to our palo who goes then what will, what, what do you think the current president dina, go to watch a need to do here to, to, to come situation. well, a lot of people, i respect, you know, they say that to force on natalie to,

to resign and to force on every election a with because a, the situation in blue is really and she can, you can go, she can see beyond is what happened in all the country, she says she wants to, to have a dangerous alliance with the army forces. because is the only the only way she says the boon would shoot, you saw to remain the bower. and now she doesn't, she doesn't sink for the country for the good of the country to. she's the only think because she was to continue to be president. and it's really selfish for her to do that in a country where the, where the people was to every, by the go and with it, the, you know, when are they should force an early election with her meet, you need it, immediate resignation. we have,

we are expected in the night or in the morning of today. if she does, she will resign. but she didn't until and andrea to the that she appeared in between with the army with a cheese of the army, with the chief of the bully, that of the police. and he wants to not recognize or did it 23 people diving blue with police by police violence. this is really, really are contrary to the human rights policy for any country in latin america. and in biddle, we did that as c d. 's gain of blindness from leader seen a dime my low and we have teaks present since 2016. so cindy no longer now she grows denying have you have a thought?

hey, i want to put this to you because it has been argued not just by peter castillo critics . that many of his problems were, was self inflicted. that he, he changed his cabinet members about 80 times in the 17 months that he was in power of a very celtic administration. and there is also the undeniable fact that he, he tried to dissolve congress and ruled by decree. and his critics will say, this is why he was impeached and removed from office, and this is why he is currently in detention. what do you say to that? well, basically, difficult municipal factors. it is true that there was a great deal of incompetence for mister castillo, got them. by the same time, there congress put obstacles to every single appoint that he may for his cabinet. the congress impeach minister after minister after minister he had to. ringback him in to some day on a weekly basis. it was an absolutely absurd situation with congress would not let mister gusty your rule, the country. i mean,

i have lost count or how many ministers he lost because congress impeached them, or congress put pressure on him or to change minister is very difficult to rule account of where you can't have a stable executive where the stable are coming in at the same time he showed a great deal of incompetence, maybe because of the lack of lack of experience. whatever the reason he is to fund the matter is that he was pretty competent. many of the promises he wanted to fulfill what not fulfilled, especially for the countries people in the countryside, in the provinces. and that contributed to the situation. case of the, of the accusations of corruption, people in the here in a circle where accuse i've been accused of, i leggett cases of garage by the attorney general could trying to close on parliament. the congress was a political sri site. i, when the judge used to find the request made by prosecutors to put him behind, bus white teen love, basically prod the big items where the one that when he made the announcement that he wanted to close congress, he had contacted ahead of the armed forces under police before the head of the

national police to go physically cause congress and to arrest that then attorney. they are the attorney general, which was something that is considered illegal. but also there was danger that he would feed the country because mexico had offer to give him a political asylum doctor, the reason i'm on when you are the research aware read a throughout to our sofa. something convoluted, sort of reasoning are not to put him behind by for 18 months to build up a case against him. so he would, there was a combination of incompetence, but also was it, it was also they did job that the congress deep to sure that he did not work because my years of people were against him. and that is, this is one of that, which was how many notes was the result of that, of that period of talk and the ability to improve germany. but if we broaden this out a little bit and talk about the implications that this has beyond peruse borders. how, how is this dividing the rest of latin america? well, before i answer that question,

may i just say one thing about to follow up on your prior guests comment? i, i think it's important to know that for a vast majority of peruvians who are poor from rural areas or live in for urban communities, castillo represented something quite unique, right? the 1st time that someone from their social group, i had ever been elected to the presidency. and i think one reason you see so many people coming out in defense of him, i mean that all the protest are demanding his release and returned to the presidency. to be sure, but many people are because they feel they voted for castillo. they believed in his promises for change, for real political and economic change in a country where political and economic exclusion for these majorities has been you know, quite a business. so i think that is something that is often overlooked from

a perspective of, you know, looking at things from lima. i think that is really important to keep in mind. and the not only was congress and other politicians obstructionist as well as one of your guests was saying, visa v, a, present as if they were me racist. and in and disdainful toward him because he was the moral areas because of the way he spoke spanish and clinton, he was an educator in inno incapable and so forth. and, and, and a lot of people took offense and said that, so this, i think his field coke indignation around the way he was treated. but if i could go through my original question about the wider implications of this beyond the, on peru. yeah, i mean, i think you've seen with, with that there was a statement put out by columbia, argentina, mexico, in bolivia for standing behind prison castillo and, and assert he is still the elected president of peru and demanding that he be

returned to office and so forth. and also demanding, you know, that he be treated with due process. i absolutely think it's important that he be treated with due process, and there is some, there are some questions about this, as one of your guys said a moment ago, but to deny that president castillo tried to carry out a coup, not only in which he tried to shut down, congress intervene in the judiciary rule by decree, wright one cannot deny that reality, and they've tried to explain it away. very a very, he was drawn, he's been kidnapped, he was confused, he was betrayed, et cetera. we all saw on television. president castillo announced his a bit, which ultimately failed, because he did not have the support for his actions, which were in effect, unconstitutional. so the, it's not surprising, i suppose,

to see some of the latin american left wing governments rise up in support of castillo. but part of their comments are absolutely inaccurate. all right, we're going to have to leave it there and we will certainly be following you how all of this plays out. and we appreciate all of you putting this in perspective for us. paula who does have a thought, hey, and joe marie, but thanks so much for being on inside story and thank. he was always watching rama, you can see the program again. any time just go to a website. i just eat a dot com. and for more discussion as our facebook page at facebook dot com forward slash ha inside school, you can also join the conversation on twitter handle there is that's a inside store for me, hasn't we can all team year, bye for now. 015000
