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.
"This government is not proposing and won't propose that overnight," Vasquez said during one of her first interviews late on Friday with state-owned TV Peru. "Right now, what matters is facing the pandemic...and especially generating economic stability."
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'sStill, she said Castillo's government would support mining, a key source of tax revenue for the country, which is the world's No. 2 copper producer.
