In addition, he maintained that “If Chile hands it over to Peru, then that is his business”, and reiterated that there is no break with the Peruvian people, but relations with the Boluarte administration will remain on hold in the economic and commercial field.

In addition, with the decision of the Legislative Power of the Inca nation, he will be prevented from entering that country, for which the Tabasco politician maintained that the only thing he will regret is not being able to visit the archaeological zone of Machu Picchu.

López Obrador assured that the Boluarte administration has low popularity and even so they “cling” to power, for this reason he recommended reinstating the presidential procedure and that new elections be called “if not, it will be from crisis to crisis.”

López Obrador urged Peruvians to restore the electoral procedure and “of course, release Pedro Castillo”, whom he said was elected by the people, although he acknowledged that his electoral victory was by a very narrow margin.

In addition, López Obrador thanked the left-wing Peruvian legislators who voted against the initiative of the Popular Action parliamentary group, although he acknowledged that “they brushed us off.”

“There were those who voted against that proposal, nothing more than they brushed us off, no way. But the people of Peru are extraordinary and brother,” said the Mexican president.

“If I can’t go to Peru, the only thing I regret is not going to Machu Picchu and, of course, seeing that wonderful town. Peru is a lot of people for so little government, ”he said when criticizing the Boluarte government again.

As he pointed out this Thursday, he reiterated that his government’s conflict with the Inca nation originated from the rescue operation of Evo Morales, since Peru denied the Mexican Air Force aircraft to refuel at the Lima airport and later denied permission to transit through the airspace when the plane was seeking to leave Bolivia.

The Plenary Session of the Peruvian Congress approved by majority this Thursday, the 25th, motion 6513, which declares the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, ‘persona non grata’, due to the constant interference of the man from Tabasco in the political affairs of that country, in addition to refuse to hand over the temporary presidency of the Pacific Alliance.
