Peruvian Journalist Slams Colombian President's Territorial Claim: Santa Rosa District Sparks Cross-Border Tensions

Lima, Peru – Peruvian journalist Jaime Bayly has strongly criticized Colombian President Gustavo Petro following Petro's request for the Santa Rosa district, located on the border with Peru. In a video widely circulated, Bayly described Petro's actions as "pathetic" and indicative of a deteriorating political situation. The Santa Rosa district, currently part of Peru, has become a point of contention between the two South American nations. Bayly's comments highlight growing tensions surrounding the territorial claim. Adding to the political climate, the video also referenced a planned march in Colombia, organized by former President Álvaro Uribe, scheduled for August 7th. This demonstration is seen as a sign of public dissatisfaction with the current Colombian government. Political analysts suggest that these developments could significantly influence Colombia's upcoming elections. Bayly's commentary implies that Petro's perceived poor performance makes a victory for the left highly improbable, with the right or center likely to gain power. The situation underscores the complex political dynamics and border sensitivities in the region.
