00:30 | Lima, Feb. 22.

Below, we publish the communiqué issued by the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Friday night regarding the remarks made by Mrs. Claudia Sheinbaum.

The Ministry rejects and protests against the statements made by Mrs. Claudia Sheinbaum, which reflect a complete lack of understanding of the failed coup d'état carried out by Mr. Pedro Castillo on December 7, 2022, in Peru.

Mrs. Sheinbaum's sustained ideologized stance demonstrates a blatant disregard for the rule of law and the principle of non-intervention, contradicting the fundamental guidelines that underpin the Estrada Doctrine, which the Mexican Government claims to uphold.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs demands for Peru the same level of respect that the Mexican Government expects in its relations with other States.
