AMLO condemns that the Government of Peru declared a state of emergency: “It is a state of siege”

The president of Mexico, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO)said this Friday that the suspension of individual guarantees in Peru means that in fact there is a state of siege, with military and soldiers that prevent people from demonstrating against the arrest of the former president Pedro Castillo.

About the political situation in the Peru “We have already established our position, fWe signed a document with the president of Colombia, Argentina, Bolivia, expressing that the vote of citizens must be respected, democracy, and that force should not be used, the people should not be repressed and that freedoms must be guaranteed. In this case, they made the decision to suspend individual guarantees and there is, in fact, a state of siege, with the military and soldiers preventing those who are dissatisfied with the president’s arrest and the way in which Congress acted from demonstrating,” he said.

The president of Mexico also criticized his country’s media coverage of the crisis in the Peru. “It would be good for it to be known, because the conservative media do not report, the level of sectarianism is incredible, the tendencies of the media in Mexico and in the world. There are horrific exceptions. Now is when free, independent journalism is most valuable, but there is hardly any. In Mexico, the media are not informed about the Peru. From the beginning the information was tendentious, without analysis, without context, very unfortunate”.

The president reiterated his position on the crisis in Peru: freedoms and democracy must be guaranteed.

He condemned the new Government declaring a State of Emergency. “It’s a state of siege.”

“I was watching a visit by the United States ambassador to the Government Palace in Peru. Regardless of the fact that an ambassador can go anywhere, doesn’t it seem an act of arrogance to not take care of manners, to not act with respect?” said AMLO.
