Peruvian Prime Minister Alberto Otarola on [16 May] met with Congress Board members to discuss two important bills —submitted urgently by the Executive Branch— referring to the surveillance of Peruvian borders, as well as the entrusting and remote management of the Presidential Office (whenever President Dina Boluarte must travel abroad).
