Lima, June 3 (RHC)-- In Peru, protests will resume on June 14th and the Third Seizure of Lima will take place with the participation of leaders and groups from the south like Puno, Tacna, Moquegua and Ayacucho.

The president of the Unified Front of the Puno Basins, Peru Felix Suasaca, confirmed that there will be what they call a "dry strike" throughout the region, in protest against the repression unleashed by the government of President-designate Dina Boluarte.

According to Suasaca, the protest is being carried out because "there is still no justice for the people who died during the protests against the government" appointed by Dina Boluarte.  He also mentioned that the purpose of this strike is the resignation of the president appointed since last December, the dissolution of the Congress and the call for a constituent assembly.

According to the union leader: "A dry strike paralyzes and there is no movement in each of the jurisdictions where we are, in each district and province included.  Those of us who have always protested are told that it is a crime, but, for us, it will never ever be a crime", he explained.

He informed that the demonstrations in the main cities are going to be carried out according to how each one of the districts are doing, since he said that they are self-convened: "here there are no leaders, we are diligent and we are together with the people and fighting for them", he said.

On the other hand, he detailed that from midday of this Tuesday the Puno region will be paralyzed, so there will be no vehicular movement, nor commerce, in the 13 provinces united in the strike.  "We here in the Puno region are the resistance, tomorrow we have this dry strike where the 13 provinces are consolidated, therefore, the region will have this dry strike to see that so far there is no justice for the brothers killed in the city of Juliaca," said Suasaca.

For his part, the general secretary of the Defense Front of the Northern Cone of Arequipa (Fredicon) Felipe Domínguez Chávez, pointed out that next June 14 the protests against the government of Dina Boluarte will be resumed. Leaders and groups from the south, such as Puno, Tacna, Moquegua and Ayacucho, will participate in this Third Seizure of Lima.
