MADRID, 6 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Government of Peru has announced this Friday the dismissal of its ambassador to Bolivia, Carina Palacios, in the context of the controversy over the alleged interference of former Bolivian President Evo Morales in internal Peruvian affairs.
“It is resolved to terminate Mrs. Carina Ruth Palacios Quincho’s functions as extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador of Peru in the Plurinational State of Bolivia,” the Government has indicated in a resolution published by the newspaper ‘El Peruano’.
Palacios is the founder of the Peru Libre party, an organization with which former President Pedro Castillo came to power, whose removal by Congress at the beginning of December generated a political crisis followed by numerous protests.
Morales has been carrying out various political activities in Peru, which the current president, Dina Boluarte, has described as interference. On Wednesday, the Peruvian head of state indicated that she would evaluate Morales’s situation, although she has not provided further details on the matter.
