Peru has now sworn in a new president after former leader Pedro Castillo was impeached by Congress and detained. Castillo was arrested just hours after saying he would dissolve Congress by presidential decree – a move the country’s constitutional court said was a ‘coup d’etat.’ Congress moved ahead with a vote on whether he should be impeached. Castillo’s deputy, Dina Boluarte, has now become the country’s first female leader. Peru has faced a string of political crises since Castillo took office 18 months ago.
