President Dina Boluarte rejects the intervention of Evo Morales in internal affairs of Peru

The President of Peru, Dina Boluarte, explained this Wednesday that her Administration is analyzing, together with the country’s migration control body (National Superintendence of Migrations), the entry of former Bolivian president Evo Morales to avoid his intervention in national politics.

“We are talking with Migrations so that, within this context, we can see the situation of Mr. Evo Morales’ entry into the country. I believe that no one, no person, no former president, no leader from another country has a reason to intervene in the internal affairs of a country,” she declared in an interview for the Peruvian radio station PBO.

In this sense, Boluarte has questioned that the former Bolivian president -president between 2006 and 2019- interferes in Peruvian politics: “We have the right to weave our own history, no outside character should be intervening,” she added.

As the constitutional president has expressed, Morales’s intention would be to promote separatism in the south of the country, an option that “will not prosper” because “Peruvians love their regions.”

The Peruvian Congress, during the mandate of the now ex-president Pedro Castillo, declared Morales persona non grata in November 2021, due to his “negative activism” and “interference” in political affairs. The legislators maintained that his attitude constituted a “clear prejudice to the interests of the Peruvian people.”
