LIMA - Peruvian President Martin Vizcarra on Sunday proposed ending the legislative and presidential terms of office a year earlier than scheduled and holding elections in 2020 in the face of opposition to his efforts to pass anti-corruption measures.
In his traditional independence day holiday speech, Vizcarra said the proposal will be presented to Congress and must be ratified in a referendum. “We do not aim to hold on to our positions, but to defend the institution and the legislative power,” Olaechea said. Vizcarra said in his address that many people had told him during his travels through Peru in the last year that they do not feel represented by Congress and asked him to shut it down.
