US EditionThe World's Most Unpopular President? Peru's Leader Clings to Power
- Dina Boluarte became Peru's president in December 2022 after the impeachment and imprisonment of Pedro Castillo, her predecessor and former vice-president.
- Boluarte chose not to call fresh elections and has stayed in power without a party in Congress, relying on support from majority right-wing lawmakers despite ongoing investigations.
- Her administration faced violent protests and a police crackdown that killed around 50 protesters, contributing to her plummeting approval rating amid Peru's political instability.
- According to Ipsos Peru, Boluarte's popularity dropped from 21% at her inauguration to 2% recently, which Ipsos president Alfredo Torres described as possibly a world record of sustained disapproval.
- Despite her weakness, analysts say Boluarte remains because Peru's economy grows steadily and voter lethargy persists, while no appealing alternatives or political solutions have emerged.
