12:06 | Lima, Jul. 20.

Peruvian Prime Minister Violeta Bermudez on Tuesday assured that relying on willingness it is possible to make an orderly transfer process during a week, without affecting the operation of public services.

"With knowledge, willingness, and commitment, it is possible to make an orderly transfer and not affect the operation of public services in any way," said Bermudez, who recalled that the Transition and Emergency Government had to take two government steps in merely 24 hours.

Likewise, the Cabinet chief recalled that since May transfer teams have been formed for each sector, including the Presidency of the Council of Ministers (PCM), in compliance with the provisions of the Office of the Comptroller General of the Republic.

In this regard, the high-ranking official indicated that the outgoing administration is attentive to the new government appointing its review teams.

Furthermore, the government's spokeswoman said the political transfer must take place, which will be the meeting of current ministers with their successors, as well as between President Francisco Sagasti and President-elect Pedro Castillo. She projected that this will occur on July 30.

In addition, the Prime Minister reiterated the commitment of current ministers to be at the service of new authorities in order to guarantee that no public service faces any difficulty.

COVID-19 vaccines

Moreover, the Prime Minister affirmed that there is a National Vaccination Plan, which guarantees that immunization against COVID-19 continues, but was also confident that the process could be accelerated and completed before December because larger vaccine batches will arrive in the coming months.

Besides, Bermudez highlighted the commitment of health sector authorities for the inoculation process to develop as usual.

Remarks were made during the inauguration of the "In our hands" exhibit in Lima, which describes the Government's actions to face the pandemic.

The Ministerial Cabinet head also saluted Pedro Castillo for his proclamation as President-elect of Peru.
