Prime Minister Luis Galarreta presents the Government General Policy at the Congress' Chamber of Deputies.

This instrument brings together the set of strategic guidelines that will guide Executive Branch actions to improve the population's quality of life.

The presentation, which is attended by all Cabinet members, is the first following the restoration of a bicameral Congress.

In accordance with Article 130 of the Political Constitution of Peru, this presentation does not give rise to the submission of a confidence vote.

"We seek to ensure that every Peruvian clearly understands this Cabinet’s key areas of work. This is not a mere formality, but a commitment to coordinate measures that truly reach households and ease their economic burden," Galarreta emphasized.

The Presidency of the Council of Ministers (PCM) stated that the presentation reaffirms the Executive Branch's respect for the independence of powers and compliance with constitutional provisions.

The session will also make it possible to hear the positions of the various parliamentary groups, an essential step toward reaching consensus for the benefit of all Peruvians.
