The United States Reiterated Its Willingness to Work with Peru's New President

On Friday (10/10/2025), the United States reiterated its willingness to work productively with José Enrique Jerí, President of Peru, who took office after the Peruvian Congress removed Dina Boluarte from office. The U.S. Western Hemisphere Office emphasized that it will work with President Jerí on the country's "urgent priorities," including the 2026 elections. In its statement, the U.S. government emphasized the nearly two-century-long relationship between the two nations and expressed its support for Peruvian security, stability, and democratic institutions. According to the report from the Andean nation's Parliament, the impeachment was supported by 122 votes in favor, 16 against, and four abstentions.
