The European Union welcomes the peaceful and democratic way in which Peru dealt with the recent domestic political developments.

The EU recalls that full respect of the Constitution, democratic principles and separation of powers, in a spirit of constructive institutional dialogue and cooperation, is crucial for the country to restore political stability and to respond to the needs and aspirations of Peruvian citizens.

The EU congratulates the new President Dina Boluarte, and reiterates its support to all efforts aimed at restoring dialogue and strengthening the rule of law and democratic institutions in Peru.

The EU looks forward to continuing the reinforcement  of its good relations with Peru, and working with its authorities in areas where we have shared visions and common interests for the benefit of citizens on both sides.
