The Vice President of Peru, Dina Boluarte, was sworn in as president on Wednesday after Pedro Castillo was ousted by Congress and detained by the police earlier, just 17 months after his election.

During the session in which she was sworn in, Dina said she is assuming the presidency "in accordance with the Constitution of Peru, from now until July 26, 2026," the date on which Castillo's term would have expired.

During the swearing-in ceremony, Boluarte said, "I ask for unity in Peru and dialogue with political institutions" and asked for a "political truce" to overcome the crisis in the country.

Peru's Boluarte dodges impeachment bill vote over 'moral incapacity'

The ex-VP vowed to build a cabinet that includes all political stripes in the country. 

Boluarte becomes Peru's first-ever female President following Castillo's attempt to dissolve Congress to avoid the impeachment vote - a vote which nonetheless was carried out with 101 voices out of 130 lawmakers to support his ousting.

Ever since Castillo assumed the presidency, the right-wing dominated Congress has repeatedly been calling for his ouster based on "moral incapacity"; a phrase that's been used before to overthrow presidents in Peru.

He has been facing non-stop accusations over allegations of corruption and accused of heading a criminal organization, accusations which he all denies. 

He was detained shortly after the vote was passed for questioning over six corruption cases.
