“We do not recognize or do not recognize; You know, our tradition is not one of recognition, and neither is the relationship with Peru… well, it just continues, it is not up to us to recognize a government”
He also assured that the current situation in the South American country is of concern to the López Obrador administration due to the instability that is being experienced, in addition to the fact that —he assured— AMLO considers the president Pedro Castillo as “a good man, a good person.”
Regarding the transfer of the pro tempore presidency of the Pacific alliancewhich López Obrador would deliver to Castillo Terrones this month in Lima, Peru, Ebrard stated that it could take place in January.
