Mexico City, February 24 (RHC)-- The president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, reiterated this Friday his support to the people of Peru and to the former president of that country, Pedro Castillo, during his usual morning press conference.

The head of state described Castillo's dismissal as unjust and illegal, and assured that Mexico will continue to demand the release of the former president.  "He cannot be in jail, it is a great injustice.  I have seen polls where the spurious president has a 15 percent acceptance rate.  Eighty-five percent, disapprove of her.  But she has even less approval from Congress," López Obrador said.

The Mexican president alluded to the conversations held with Lidia Paredes, Castillo's wife, at the National Palace headquarters, and referred that he is trying to ensure that nothing is lacking for her or her family and described her as a humble, exceptional woman, full of feelings, who will not abandon her partner.

"One cannot remain silent in the face of injustice.  We are going to continue supporting the wife of President Pedro Castillo, and that is why she came, and I embraced her and expressed my solidarity with the people of Peru, especially with the humble, poor, indigenous, humiliated people," he stressed.

During his press briefing, AMLO expressed that "the majority of the people of Peru are asking for elections to be called immediately, for the people to decide," and warned that the designated-president Dina Boluarte intends to remain in office until 2026.

Likewise, the Mexican president expressed that the current Peruvian Government is ruled by force with bayonets and repression, and more than 60 people have already been murdered since Dina Boluarte took power in the Andean country.
