A study conducted by CPI between July 11 and 15 reported that 14.4% of Peruvians endorse the administration of President Dina Boluarte.
The survey queried 1,200 nationwide respondents on their opinion of Boluarte’s performance. 80.5% disapproved, and the remaining 5.2% didn’t provide a definitive response.
In Lima, the country’s capital, Boluarte’s approval rate is higher at 25.2%, with 68.7% disapproving and 6.1% refraining from providing an opinion.
This stands in contrast with the interior provinces where the survey reported an 87.4% disapproval rating, 7.9% approval, and 4.7% withholding an opinion.
The survey also touched upon public opinion of the Peruvian Congress, revealing an approval rating of 5.9%, disapproval at 90.8%, and 3.3% did not comment.
Simultaneously, public protests dubbed the “Third Takeover of Lima” are anticipated on July 19.
These protests, initiated by various civil organizations, have occurred twice before, in January and February.
Participants are demanding the removal of President Boluarte and the present Congress via early general elections.
