The top dignitary participated in a ceremony marking the closing of the First Meeting of Municipal Associations of Peru in Calca, southern Cusco region.
Within this framework, he invited local authorities to participate in the upcoming meeting, so that their main needs can be met.
"Today, we are here because of the democratic cry from authorities nationwide; I announce from this space that on Saturday, March 26, we will hold the National Agreement (session), the National Agreement Assembly, to which you are invited in a disciplined, orderly, and organic manner to participate," Mr. Castillo expressed.
The Head of State indicated that this meeting will enable the Government to assess the country's needs, as it is important to put Peru first.
Likewise, the top official affirmed his presence constitutes the Government's commitment to make decentralization a reality in Peru.
Furthermore, the Head of State explained that the fight against poverty and the closing of gaps require the support from all citizens and the nation's main authorities.
In this sense, he called on the Council of Ministers, the sectors' heads, and deputy ministers to "move from speech to action and from word to action."
