Overview
- Migraciones confirmed that Karla Tatiana Ornelas Loera completed exit formalities and departed Peru overnight on November 8–9 under a government order.
- Peru severed diplomatic relations on November 3 after Mexico granted diplomatic asylum to former prime minister Betssy Chávez, who remains inside Mexico’s embassy in Lima.
- With Ornelas’s departure, Mexico’s embassy in Lima has suspended diplomatic functions, reflecting the freeze in bilateral ties.
- Mexico has defended the asylum as a lawful humanitarian measure; President Claudia Sheinbaum called Peru’s break in relations disproportionate, and Peru’s Congress declared her persona non grata.
- Peru’s Foreign Ministry has withheld a salvoconducto for Chávez and is consulting OAS members while proposing revisions to the 1954 Caracas Convention on diplomatic asylum.
