I do not have clairvoyant skills, I do not belong to the president-elect’s entourage, I have not even seen her personally. Therefore, for this reflection I must base myself on what some want their option to be and what others fear they plan to do. Given the contrary routes that his government can take and the enormous power it holds, the answer to these questions is of vital importance to know what the direction of the country will be in the next five years.
Let’s start by describing your personality and what you want to do in general. In version A, it is maintained that her unjust prison allowed her to mature and acquire temperance, and that this will lead her to reconcile the country. In version Z, she is presented as someone who is not willing to forgive and who, rather, wants to take revenge for the suffering experienced, which will exacerbate polarization and hatred.
About the fight against violent crime. A law has been approved in the second vote and with a very low quorum, but with the unanimous vote of Fuerza Popular, without which it would not have been possible. The rule has been called the Rospigliosi law, by far the most fanatic and extremist of all members of Congress, and who Keiko has said is a candidate for the Mininter.
The law orders that crimes committed by the military and police – even if they are already being processed in the ordinary justice system – be investigated and “sanctioned” by the military-police justice system. Something openly unconstitutional, which ensures almost absolute impunity for the members of both armed institutions and becomes an incitement to crime.
This applies to the investigations of two cases that have recently shocked the country. In the military sphere, the anti-drug operation that, by “error”, ended with the death of five young people who were going to a soccer game in a nearby league. On the police front, the torture and subsequent murder of a minor at the Manchay police station.
In version A, the president presents an immediate action before the Constitutional Court so that these regulations are left without effect and calls on the Judiciary not to apply them using diffuse control. In Z, she validates what her bench did – even though she was already elected – under the premise that the fight against crime requires emergency regulations.
On the crucial issue of investment in mining and the problems generated by illegal mining. Version A: Keiko is dedicated to promoting national and foreign private investment, confronting what – given that ideological anti-miners are quite decimated – has become their main problem, namely, illegal mining.
In A, in the event that other benches voted in favor of the renewal of Reinfo, their government would observe the law and not promulgate it. In Z, she repeats what has been the position of her party in the last five years, during which it supported the renewal of Reinfo every time the issue was brought to a vote.
This methodology of analyzing possible contradictions could be continued on many other issues, starting with his understanding of the word ‘plural’ in the composition of his Cabinet; the type of justice reforms it would promote; the profile of the members of the commission that has been announced to evaluate what has been called ‘procrime laws’; and, as icing on the cake, the immense populist spending that minimizes the possibility of the large investments promised in the campaign and limits the resources to face nature’s challenges.
