President of the Republic Keiko Fujimori has requested authorization from Congress to travel to China and Japan from November 15 to 21, for the purpose of participating in the 33rd APEC Economic Leaders' Summit and carrying out an official agenda in Tokyo.
The request was submitted via a draft legislative resolution addressed to Miguel Ángel Torres Morales, President of the Senate and the Congress of the Republic.
Agenda
According to the document, the President will participate in the APEC summit—taking place in the Chinese city of Shenzhen—from November 17 to 19.
At this forum, the Peruvian agenda includes promoting issues related to trade, investment, connectivity, the digital economy, the transition to the formal sector, and the internationalization of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs).
Additionally, efforts will be made to promote Peru as a strategic partner for the supply of critical minerals and the development of resilient supply chains, in discussions with representatives of the U.S.-APEC Business Coalition.
Subsequently, on November 20, Fujimori will pay an official visit to Tokyo, where she will hold a summit meeting with the Prime Minister of Japan, Sanae Takaichi.
The meeting will serve to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the Strategic Partnership between the two nations and to review progress on the Peru-Japan Roadmap 2024–2033.
The agenda in Japan also includes the promotion of investments and the strengthening of cooperation in science, technology, and risk management regarding the El Niño phenomenon.
During the President’s absence, the Office of the President of the Republic will be overseen by the First Vice President, Luis Galarreta, in accordance with current legislation.
The request for authorization is based on Clause 7 of Article 102-A of the Political Constitution, Article 118 of the Senate Regulations, and Law No. 28344. It should be noted that the document has received the approval of the Council of Ministers—granted on November 6—and bears the signatures of the President and the President of the Council of Ministers.
