Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra on Monday led the government-to-government agreement ceremony between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Republic of Peru over the Reconstruction with Changes Program.

The event took place at the Lima-based Government Palace within the framework of

a mandatory social isolation imposed to prevent the COVID-19 from further spreading in the South American country.

Initially set to last from March 16 to 30, the quarantine was extended until June 30.

Monday marks the ninety-ninth day of mandatory social isolation in Peru.
