The Spin

Government-critical narrative

A new cabinet will fail to solve the violence issues that have plagued Peru as long as President Dina Boluarte remains in office. She is responsible for the security crisis as her government has been disastrous in protecting citizens and holding accountable those committing crimes.

Pro-government narrative

Boluarte has done all she can to tackle crime, even imposing curfews and deploying the military to fight an increase in illegal mining-related violence and other associated offenses. However, it's almost impossible to fight crime when congressmen from both sides of the aisle pass legislation that helps gangs to grow and protects them from law enforcement.
