Juntos por el Perú Says Antauro Humala Has No Role in Its Campaign

The party is moving to limit reputational risk before a possible runoff.

Overview

  • Hernando Cevallos said Antauro Humala is not part of any campaign and holds no post or representation inside Juntos por el Perú.
  • Cevallos noted a narrow overlap on calling a Constituent Assembly, which is a process to draft a new Constitution, and he rejected violent rhetoric linked to Humala.
  • Roberto Sánchez said he respects Humala’s right to speak but does not share his past statements, and he stressed those ideas are not in the party’s platform.
  • Correo reported Humala appeared at least 18 times in activities tied to the party, including a closing rally and a press event, and cited Humala calling the relationship a de facto coalition.
  • Cevallos described Juntos por el Perú as a coalition of groups, and coverage recalled Humala’s long prison term for rebellion, factors that shape how parties court support heading into a likely second round.
