Peru's Congress votes down another proposal to advance elections to this year, a day after a similar proposal aimed at quelling deadly nationwide unrest also failed
Demonstrators take part in a protest to demand Peru's President Dina Boluarte to step down in southeastern Cusco city.
The proposal by the Free Peru party was rejected with 75 votes against and only 48 in favour, with one abstention. The Andean country is in the grip of some eight weeks of anti-government protests with dozens of people killed in clashes between demonstrators and security forces, mostly in Peru's copper-rich south.
