Presidents Martin Vizcarra (Peru) and Ivan Duque (Colombia) have highlighted the excellent state of bilateral relations, based on shared principles such as
democracy,
rule of law, respect for human rights, as well as the political and economic affinity uniting both countries.
In this sense, this promise will be materialized during the joint call to hold a period of extraordinary sessions at the
United Nations' General Assembly in the first half of 2021, with the purpose of adopting concrete actions to
prevent and fight corruption, as well as to strengthen international cooperation on this matter.
Earlier, both Presidents held a meeting in order to assess bilateral relations and common goals towards the future.
Furthermore, the two Heads of State urged the international community to increase cooperation with the countries welcoming Venezuelan migrants, so they can attend to the massive exodus of the Bolivarian nation's citizens.
Finally, they reaffirmed their commitment to continuing to strengthen presidential meetings and Binational Cabinets.
Thus, President Vizcarra invited his Colombian counterpart to the Presidential Meeting and 5th Binational Cabinet set to take place in Peru on August 27.
