"We don't have more time; this is truly so important to us," Vasquez said in a meeting with leaders from Chumbivilcas province who have been blocking the road for about a month, forcing Las Bambas to suspend operations last week. Vasquez has been reluctant to declare a state of emergency to clear the road, as demanded by industry leaders, saying the government would prefer to engage in dialogue.
"If , it puts us in a very serious problem as a state," Vasquez said. If the blockade continues, she said she could be censured by Congress and that Las Bambas could sue the country for failing to clear the road.
