Overview
- Speaking at the UN General Assembly, Dina Boluarte said the Armed Forces and National Police are unfairly portrayed as human‑rights violators and defended the amnesty law her government enacted.
- She asked the United Nations to recognize transnational extortion and narcotrafficking mafias as terrorist organizations and called for new national and international legislation to confront them.
- Boluarte cited 17 months of economic growth, inflation below 2%, international reserves above US$88 billion and debt near 32% of GDP, describing her administration as the most stable in five years.
- Framing recent unrest as violent, she argued protests were financed by illegal mining, narcotrafficking and corrupt networks, and reiterated plans to expand schools and hospitals as she acknowledged high poverty.
- Her UN week also included an investment appeal to Ibero‑American business leaders and a separate women’s forum appearance where her microphone was cut for exceeding the allotted time.
