BACKGROUND:
Deadly protests have gripped Peru since Congress expelled the country's first working-class president, Pedro Castillo.
Timeline of events since December 7, 2022:
Dec 7, 2022: The surprise winner of the July 2021 presidential election, Castillo comes under immediate attack from the right. On December 7 he attempts to dissolve Congress before it can debate a third impeachment motion against him and says he will form an emergency government and rule by decree.
Dec 7: Lawmakers vote overwhelmingly to remove him from office for "moral incapacity" to exercise power.
He is arrested for "rebellion".
Vice President Dina Boluarte becomes Peru's first woman president.
She says she intends to serve out the rest of Castillo's term, until July 2026.
The United States pledges to work with Boluarte.
Dec 10: Pro-Castillo protests spread, with demonstrators blocking roads and burning tyres across the country.
Dec 11: Two people are killed in Andahuaylas in the south.
Dec 12: Hundreds of protesters temporarily block the airport runway in Peru's second-biggest city, Arequipa.
On December 14 Peru announces a 30-day nationwide state of emergency.
Dec 15: Castillo's pre-trial detention is prolonged for 18 months.
Dec 16: The pro-Castillo protests spread to the town of Cusco, the gateway to Peru's top tourist attraction, the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu, with rail services, road and air links closed.
Dec 20: As the death toll rises, Congress votes to bring forward the general election from 2026 to April 2024.
Jan 9, 2023: Eighteen people are killed in clashes with security forces triggered when demonstrators try to storm an airport in the southeastern city of Juliaca.
The prosecutor's office says it will investigate Boluarte for genocide over the protests.
The next day Peru's government declares a state of emergency in Lima and three other regions.
Jan 19: Clashes with police punctuate a march by thousands through the capital for a large anti-government rally.
Peru closes Machu Picchu on January 21.
On the 24th, Lima sees its most violent clashes since the start of the crisis.
Jan 26: The government says police and soldiers will dismantle roadblocks erected by protesters on the nation's highways.
Jan 28: Congress rejects a request by Boluarte to advance elections to December 2023.
Jan 31:
The Peruvian Foreign Minister led, in Washington DC, a meeting between Peruvian businessmen and their counterparts from the US Chamber of Commerce. Representatives of multinational companies from mining, finance, technology, and health, among other sectors attended the event.

Kyle Rittenhouse as a minor who should not have had a gun and drove across state lines with his parent mother, without being asked, to play vigilante. Making a martyr out of this boy and fighting among each other is what those in power want. We need to recognize both race and class are struggles we need to overcome to defeat the elites at this time. In order to go after them, we can't think less of others.
