Peru's embattled president announces plans to dissolve Congress and rewrite the constitution, hours before he was due to face a third impeachment vote
Peru’s President Pedro Castillo announced on Wednesday that he will dissolve Congress temporarily, and will install an emergency government – hours before lawmakers were due to make an impeachment vote in congress. In a televised speech from the Presidential Palace on Wednesday, Castillo said he will call for early parliamentary elections to work on a new constitution. The embattled president, who has survived two impeachment attempts, also declared a national curfew from Wednesday from 10 p.m.
The government of the leftist leader has also been mired in chaos since inauguration, with dozens of ministers appointed, replaced, sacked or resigned in little over a year – piling further pressure on the beleagured president.
