Peru Says All Road Blockades Have Been Lifted After Day of Protests

Peru’s highway authority Sutran said on Thursday morning that all road blockades had been lifted, a day after protests seeking the resignation of President Dina Boluarte were held.

  • Peru’s ombudsman’s office said over 50 protests took place on Wednesday
  • Impact on economy is expected to be very limited as road blockades were short lived
  • Protests were the strongest demonstrations in months against Boluarte, which is facing a record-low approval rate of 14% according to Ipsos
    • She already faced a wave of protests earlier this year that left almost 50 dead in confrontations
