has emphasized that Peru has a solid legal framework, thus ensuring the stability and security of Japanese investments.
Likewise, the top official highlighted the safe and favorable environment the country provides for developing enterprises.
The Head of State noted that the official visit she is carrying out in the Asian country —along with a delegation made up of six State ministers— aims to address issues of interest to both nations in a professional and technical manner.
"Japan is, without a doubt, one of Peru’s most important partners and friendly nations. Our states established diplomatic relations 152 years ago, and we have managed to elevate our bilateral ties to a strategic partnership, which will mark its 10th anniversary next year," Mrs. Boluarte emphasized.
In this regard, the President noted that in 2024 Japan was Peru's sixth-largest trading partner and the fifth-largest destination for its exports.
Key products included copper, zinc, tin, iron, and natural gas, as well as high-nutritional-value products such as avocados, asparagus, grapes, and mangoes.
While the President acknowledged that Peru still faces challenges such as the infrastructure gap, she pointed out that this situation calls for quality, sustainable investment.
Such investment —she said—would make it possible to build more and better bridges, roads, schools, hospitals, among others, helping to reduce inequality and poverty in the country.
"I am confident that the path toward the social well-being and development of Peruvians can move forward hand-in-hand with Japanese investment, as our countries have a solid and comprehensive legal framework that guarantees the stability and security of Japanese investments," Mrs. Boluarte stated.
Furthermore, the top official extended an invitation to Japanese businesspeople to attend the Perumin Mining Convention, to be held in the city of Arequipa from September 22 to 26.
She deemed it as "an opportunity to showcase Peru’s mining potential as a strategic supplier to Japan."
Moreover, the Head of State thanked the Peruvian-Japanese Business Council (CEPEJA) and the businesspeople present at the event for joining this Government effort.
The President also expressed her appreciation for their interest in Peru.
"I am convinced that, after this work, these meetings, and these two days of efforts, investments from Japan to Peru will begin to arrive on a massive scale," she concluded.
