Likewise, the statesman explained that —after having consulted with legal experts— he was informed that the process to withdraw from the electoral process must be initiated.
Within this framework, the top official affirmed that he is not a candidate anymore.
His term in office is expected to end on July 28, 2021.

The President also indicated that the National Police of Peru deserves everyone's recognition because it has played an extremely important role during the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic —a task in which many agents have died.
