Aníbal Torres: “There is no fear here. I’m standing very firm”

The president of the Council of Ministers has been the target of criticism in recent days not only because of the measures adopted by the government to stop the demonstrations, but also because of the comments made during their interventions. In this regard, Aníbal Torres pointed out that he receives all the criticism that is said about him, including those that he describes as coming from “coup voices”. “It is not that we are dying of fear, there is no fear here, as you see. I am standing very firmly, I am not trembling no matter how much criticism there is because we are willing, if possible, to give our lives for the people,” he said from Puno where the fifth decentralized Council of Ministers was held.During the event, he recalled that the previous day, from Junín, a similar event had been held where the demands of authorities and leaders were heard. Torres, assured that among the attendees “the majority” was “in favor of our government”. In addition, he referred to the voices against it, including the request of an authority to President Pedro Castillo to resign from the position for which he was elected.“But there were coup voices which we have also heard because they are Peruvian and have the right to say. But what was broadcast yesterday afternoon in the media? Only what the coup leaders said, not what others said,” he said criticizing journalistic work, a fact that he has repeated since the government took office.Leaders shout and demand Pedro Castillo as soon as he arrives in Huancayo | VIDEO: Canal NRegarding the possibility of closing Congress due to the constant clashes between the two powers over the past eight months, Torres said that Castillo’s government is democratic and that it is not seek dissolution to happen, despite being a power granted by the Constitution. “We have to overcome hatreds, grudges, we have to overcome political failures, political defeats that are temporary and we all have to agree by putting Peru ahead,” he said.ORDER “COUP PISTA”The Council of Ministers held on Thursday in the city of Huancayo was marked by anecdotes such as the intervention of Minister Betssy Chávez, the intervention of Dina Boluarte singing the popular mulliza “Falsia” and the emulation of Aníbal Torres, who is remembered as one of the greatest genocides in the history of humanity, Adolfo Hitler. However, one of the most uncomfortable moments for government representatives was the intervention of leaders Eduardo Sauñí and Carlos Garagatti, who asked Pedro Castillo to resign. “We don’t have anything to eat Mr. President, my daughter would tell me that if I started a conversation with the president, he would tell me ‘tell the president to step side’, that’s what the people ask, with all due respect, I’m going to ask him to step aside and call for new elections,” Sauñí said at Huanca Stadium. .Aníbal Torres defends Hitler's speech in Puno | VIDEO: Canal NShortly after, he regretted the premier’s comments by recommending that the population eat fish in the face of rising chicken prices. “Every day you disrespect us, how can you say you eat fish, because it’s not enough for chicken. They say it’s a global problem, but what are we doing, let’s hope people make stoppages,” he said.“Mr. Castillo, ministers, let us put on the shirt of Junín and the country, otherwise, as a civil society, we will have to ask you for the welfare of us and the country, to step aside,” Garagatti said at the time of his speech.KEEP READINGSupporters of President Pedro Castillo tried to attack Lourdes Flores Nano in march against the governmentMinister Alejandro Salas: “President Castillo is not going to resign”Diego Bazán: “President Pedro Castillo should have been vacated a long time ago” | INTERVIEW
