Peru's Boluarte government has zero democratic legitimacy, is broadly rejected by the public and under investigation for numerous human rights violations. Now, with roughly 1,000 US troops stationed in the country, it faces a third massive march on Lima.

Looks like Canadian mining interests are to blame for a good deal of the political unrest. Even the Sendero seems set to participate in the upcoming protests, which could result in a further radicalization.The bloodshed will probably only get worse now that there are US troops in Peruvian soil. Hopefully Boluarte will crack soon, before her regime can kill too many more comrades.
