Peru's new prime minister Mirtha Vasquez said redrafting the country's pro-market constitution is not currently a priority for the government, despite it having been a key campaign promise.
LIMA - Peru's new prime minister Mirtha Vasquez said redrafting the country's pro-market constitution is not currently a priority for the government, despite it having been a key campaign promise.
Vasquez, a former head of Congress, is the second person to become prime minister under President Pedro Castillo, who has been in the job just two months. Her remarks will further calm investors who have been spooked by Castilllo's campaign promise to redraft Peru's pro-market constitution. Vasquez is a lawyer and has represented indigenous communities in conflict with big mining companies, including a landmark case against Newmont Mining Corp's Yanacocha gold mine.
