President expects Pope Francis' visit to open dialogue in Peru

President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski said he hopes Pope Francis' upcoming visit to Peru will bring peace and dialogue into the country.

Via Twitter, the Head of State noted all Peruvians —despite their differences— share the desire to build a united country without violence, especially against women or children.

"I hope Pope Francis' visit will lead us back to a path of peace and dialogue [...]," the post reads.
