World News@lemmy.ml•Peru to declare state of emergency after protests against new president leave one dead and dozens injuredEnglish
1·18 days agoBoluarte faced widespread protests after she assumed power in late 2022, leading to dozens of deaths and a plunge in her popularity levels, which oscillated between 2% and 4% in the days leading up to her ouster. Congress – which was headed by Jerí before he became president – is almost equally unpopular, with a single-digit approval rating.
It’s in there, last two paragraphs. The new president is just an updated version of the old one, with his own major corruption accusations:
Jerí, 38, has promised to make crime his top priority but has faced a number of scandals, including corruption allegations and a now-shelved investigation for sexual assault. Jerí has denied wrongdoing in both cases and expressed willingness to cooperate with any corruption investigation.

From a distance it looks like the American people don’t realize what’s happening and accept it because “it will be over in 4 years”. Keeping them frightened of losing their breadcrumbs also works very well.
