The President of the Republic Pedro Castillo on Tuesday morning received the credential letters from Ambassadors designated to Peru by Croatia, Norway, Angola, Nigeria, Ghana, Singapore, Namibia, South Africa, and Tunisia.

The activity took place at the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Lima, from where he led the virtual meeting.

Last Monday, the Head of State led a special session of the Council of Ministers to address a bill for a popular consultation on a new Political Constitution.

As a result of said meeting, the Executive Branch presented to Congress a constitutional reform bill aimed at putting a referendum on the ballot asking voters whether they wish to convene a Constituent Assembly to draft a new constitution for Peru.

On Friday, April 29, the top dignitary is expected to travel to the Ecuadorian city of Loja to participate in the 14th Peru-Ecuador Binational Cabinet and Presidential Meeting.
