The convulsion in the country has already left 26 dead, hundreds injured, a deeply fragmented society, a completely incompetent political class and a president who is incapable of understanding the general demand of the population that demands her resignation and the advancement of general elections to get out. of the political crisis into which they have led us.

In various regions of the south of the country, regional governors have also called for the resignation of President Boluarte and hold her responsible for the deaths that occurred in clashes with Army troops. Although there is a reflux of the social movement, it is no less true that spontaneity must give way to higher levels of organization and centralization of popular demand.

Faced with this situation, the government responds with calls for dialogue and mobilizing the streets, calling for marches for peace, white hands and poles, this typical way of pitting the people against the people.

For her part, Boluarte has indicated that she is not allowed to govern because she is a woman and because there is a marked “machismo” in the country, trying to justify her actions and the clumsiness of her decisions. She has also announced the recomposition of her ministerial cabinet, removing her Prime Minister Pedro Angulo on national television.

Last Sunday, with the complacency of all the national television media, he walked through the main news programs to make it clear, not even an eyebrow moves, that he is not going to resign his position, that this would not solve anything and that she does not understand why her countrymen from Apurímac, the region where she was born, mobilize against her.

The same journalists and media that until a few weeks ago classified her as Dina "Dinamita", alluding to her closeness or militancy to the Peru Libre party, and who mocked her management at the command of the Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion, now received her with all the honors of his investiture and the benevolence that the situation warranted.

For more than two hours he addressed the country to say absolutely nothing about a political solution to the crisis and the disproportionate use of force by members of the Army. He did not say anything either about the more than twenty deaths he has been carrying in just two weeks of government.

Completely out of focus and far from reality, she was unable to assume any responsibility or self-criticism, any act of political detachment or proposal to help us process this harsh situation that Peruvian society is going through.

Only his weak and tepid announcement of the recomposition of the ministerial cabinet, accompanied by the high military commands, was the characteristic that did not go unnoticed, since the power and influence of militarism increased, his government being already classified by some sectors as representation of a civil military government.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the illegitimate government has announced that those responsible for the murder of our compatriots by the bullets fired by members of the Army will be tried in military jurisdiction. Nor does it go unnoticed that the new head of the National Intelligence Directorate, DINI, Juan Carlos Liendo, is a former colonel who was an adviser to the Intelligence Commission of the Congress of the Republic, chaired by Admiral José Cueto, one of the most radicals and fascists of the Popular Renewal party.

Dina Boluarte has closed the doors to democratic options in search of a way out of the unprecedented political crisis that the country is experiencing and, instead, opens a dark and violent door to a regime born as a product of an infamous political pact with the ultra-right and the military, where she represents only a decorative and changeable piece.
