[1/4] Peru's new President Dina Boluarte arrives to speak to the media at the Government Palace, in Lima, Peru December 8, 2022.
That's easier said than done," said Jason Marczak, senior director of the Atlantic Council's Adrienne Arsht Latin America Center.
"The last Peruvian president to not belong to a political party, Martin Vizcarra, was impeached by Congress in 2020, leading to a wave of protests," said Marczak.
But after Wednesday's events, the 60-year-old Boluarte lambasted Castillo for his "attempted coup."
"(Peru's new President) Dina Boluarte is not our president," said Sonia Castaneda at a protest on Wednesday in Lima, where some pro-Castillo demonstrators clashed with police.
