On the economic side, Morales believes that “the market cannot go its own way”.

I will wait for this period to decide, ”said the mayor of the capital. However, said entity has not made any official statement in this regard. For his part, López Aliaga believes that the aforementioned pacification should include social development programs.
“You cannot go to pacify without solving social problems. There must be a social investment plan in Puno, with the army (…) Pacification plus aid, more investments (…) For example, the question of the cold in Puno, once for all let’s set up the thermal tents that they use all over the world (…) and stop (thus), every year, having the problem of freezing”, he underlined in a recent interview.

However, both parties have indicated that the head of state has made it clear that she will not resign. Thus, the future of new elections remains in the hands of a Congress that has not yet reached a consensus.
