Ernesto Bustamante of Fuerza Popular: “I don't think the vacancy motion against Pedro Castillo will prosper”

Ernesto Bustamante, a congressman of the Popular Force Bank, said that constantly changing ministers is not the right way to good governance. In addition, he said that the vacancy motion against Pedro Castillo will not succeed.

He gave these statements to the newspaper La República, where he also rejected that the population wants to advance the elections, a proposal that was put to the fore by former President Francisco Sagasti.

“(Pedro Castillo) should govern the five years, that would be the right and appropriate thing to do. Constitutionally it is also possible that there will be vacancy motions, as there have been. But I don't think the vacancy motion that will be heard on Monday will be successful,” he said.

However, the parliamentarian assured that the head of state must take with “modesty” that a vacancy does not have enough votes to remove him from office, despite the questions.

“He cannot spend the next four years with a vacancy motion every two months. You can't rule like that. If he has a cabinet, I won't say consensus, but at least well-chosen [...] then he will have a good government,” he urged.

Before concluding, Ernesto Bustamante reiterated that it is “useless” and a waste of time for vacancy motions to continue to be filed that will not prosper.

PEDRO CASTILLO WILL GO TO THE CONGRESS

Let us remember that Pedro Castillo assured that he will go this Monday, March 28 to the congress where he will debate whether or not the vacancy motion against him prospers or not. . During a school event, the president stated that “he goes wherever they call him”.

“I have to go where I am summoned, if I am summoned to the tip of the hill, to the tip of the hill I will go, if they summon me to any corner of the country, I have to go, because I have not come to steal a penny from this country and the people need us to order ourselves,” he said after visiting an educational institute in Lurigancho Chosica.

However, during another activity, the president indicated that they cannot “waste time” on agendas beyond his management, since the country needs to keep moving forward.

“When we are doing our best we cannot be distracted by agendas outside the country, while we are allocating the effort and budget for education, others respond with other terms on the street,” Castillo said during his speech at the school year 2022 opening ceremony at the IEI 527 Child Jesus of Prague, in the district of Pachacámac.

“We cannot waste time on some confrontations, we have come to close the gaps in education, this infrastructure that is an immense debt,” he emphasized.

Let us remember that a few days ago, marches were held in favor of the vacancy of Pedro Castillo, in view of this the president said he felt safe because it is the people who support it, despite the powers that want to see it outside.

“Something strange has happened in the country. Years ago we poor people marched and did it in the streets to vindicate ourselves. Today the rich are marching because something else has been taken away from them,” said the Head of State in his visit to a school in Lurigancho-Chosica where he came to inspect the beginning of classes.

AGAINST FUJIMORI'S PARDON

Something that also set the tone this week were Pedro Castillo's statements about the Constitutional Court's decision to grant Alberto Fujimori's freedom. Through his social networks, the head of state rejected this measure and assured that they will appeal.

“The institutional crisis to which I referred in my message to Congress is reflected in the latest decision of the Constitutional Court,” he said on Twitter, after learning the three votes in favor and three against the freedom of the convicted man of the Barrios Altos massacres (15 dead, including an 8-year-old boy) and the nbsp; La Cantuta (10 dead).
