Overview
- Lawmakers Patricia Chirinos and Elías Varas sent formal letters to the embassies of Brazil, Ecuador and other missions urging them not to grant political asylum to President Dina Boluarte.
- Elías Varas and other opposition figures asked the Public Ministry to evaluate an impediment for the president to leave the country.
- Dozens of protesters gathered outside Ecuador’s embassy in San Isidro and near Congress, prompting a visible police presence, with no major incidents reported.
- Boluarte’s attorney, Juan Carlos Portugal, said after a visit to the presidential palace that they have not discussed resignation or asylum and that he is reviewing about eleven fiscal cases involving her.
- Multiple motions to declare Boluarte’s ‘permanent moral incapacity’ are before Congress, and some outlets report the motions were admitted and that she was summoned for 11:30 a.m., a step not yet widely confirmed.
