Dina Boluarte will call elections for 2026
The current president of Peru, Dina Boluarte, announced that she will call elections next year to be held in 2026
Dina Boluarte, president of Peru, made the announcement about the call for elections for 2026, which will be launched next year, following what is established by the Constitution of the South American nation.
“The electoral advance is part of a series of announcements that the Peruvian president makes about changes in the government during her annual message to the nation,” they indicated, clarifying that the call for general elections will be made in April of next year.
“Thus, Peru will revitalize its institutions and its democracy, through the sovereign act of citizens to elect their authorities,” said Boluarte.
The president, who faces accusations of corruption and abuse of authority, has denied any connection with these issues and has asked the people to “monitor and report any irregular events immediately so that the authorities take drastic action.”
Boluarte will seek to strengthen the economy of Peru, the third-largest producer of copper in the world, “which for years was one of the best performers in South America,” but contracted 0.6% last year due to the climate phenomenon of “El Niño, lower investment private sector and social protests that stopped production.”
