Peru PM: Deep changes in the political-justice system are needed

14:04 | Lima, Sep. 19.

Prime Minister Cesar Villanueva on Wednesday affirmed President Vizcarra's administration seeks a deep change in the Inca country's political-justice system; thus, he requested Congress to approve the reforms submitted by the Executive Branch regarding those issues.

"Our Government has a commitment to the citizens, and we won't let them down," Villanueva expressed.

"(…) We urge all Congress members to approve the Government policies linked to integrity and fight against corruption, as well as institutional strengthening for governance," the official added.

As is known, these are the two main axes of the four constitutional reform projects submitted by the Executive Branch.
 
According to the Prime Minister, these reforms are necessary in order to turn the country into a competitive and viable one, as well as to regain trust in the political class, which has drifted apart from the population

Likewise, Villanueva assured the confidence motion is not a threat, but a tool used within the constitutional framework.
