Barley Risotto and Kimchi: A Culinary Crossroads| SaltWire #food #cookingshorts #kimchiLIMA - Peru has had six presidents since 2018 and current head of state Dina Boluarte in political hot water and facing calls to step down amid questions about the provenance of her collection of Rolex watches.
In a televised address to the nation Boluarte called the raid"abusive" and said she would serve her term until 2026. Congress has already taken initial steps to impeach Boluarte.In March, a popular political Youtube show"La Encerrona" reviewed thousands of photos of Boluarte and found she wore a number of Rolex watches worth between $14,000 and $25,000.
Local media outlets published documents from the raid showing at least one Rolex watch, a Datejust 36 model with a purchase date of July 8, 2023. A similar model on Rolex's website costs at least $14,800. Boluarte has already survived two attempts to start impeachment proceedings but both failed to receive 52 votes to proceed. Impeachment is unlikely since right-wing legislators have a majority in congress and support Boluarte.
Almost all high-ranking officials or former Peruvian presidents have been investigated by the prosecution or have been involved in corruption cases in the last three decades.
