The Executive Branch has made official the designation of Gustavo Adrianzen as new Prime Minister —a position to which he was sworn in yesterday.

The corresponding supreme resolution was published in the Official Gazette El Peruano on Thursday.

Similarly, this document noted that Adrianzen's affidavit will be published on the PCM website on the same date of publication of the aforementioned resolution.


The document indicated that the decision was made after Otarola had tendered his resignation. He was thanked for the services rendered to the Nation.

Both documents were signed by the President of the Republic Dina Boluarte.

Reconfirmation of ministers

The resolutions by which 18 Ministerial Cabinet members are reconfirmed in their posts, and who were sworn into office again yesterday due to the replacement of Prime Minister, were also published on Thursday.

The gazette's Legal Standards Bulletin contains the resolutions by which each resignation is accepted, as well as the other 18 documents in which each designation was made official.

These latest resolutions were signed by President Dina Boluarte and Prime Minister Gustavo Adrianzen.
