Peru's Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Ignacio Higueras received the greeting from Slovakian Ambassador Rastislav Hindický, who is participating in the

On January 25, 2022, the OECD Council decided —by consensus— to invite Peru to start the process of accession to this institution.
Subsequently, in June 2023, Peru submitted its Initial Memorandum, which is a self-assessment of the country's legislation, policies, and practices against OECD standards and best practices.
