Peru's Incoming Leader Signals Diplomatic Reset With Mexico

Peru's president-elect Keiko Fujimori said July 10 she'll restore ties with Mexico, severed last November when Mexico granted asylum to ousted Peruvian PM Betssy Chavez. Mexico's president responded cautiously, signaling openness but no commitments yet. The core dispute centers on imprisoned ex-President Pedro Castillo: Mexico calls his detention illegal interference; Peru views it as a domestic matter. Both positions remain entrenched.
