Rafael López Aliaga, leader of the political party Renovación Popular, publicly blamed Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro on Thursday for the influx of transnational criminal organizations into Peru, specifically citing groups such as the Tren de Aragua.
The politician used strong rhetoric during his statements, alleging that the administration of Maduro deliberately sent criminal elements—whom he referred to as "scum"—out of Venezuela and into other countries in the region, including Peru.
The remarks highlight ongoing political discourse and security concerns in Peru regarding transnational crime, illegal immigration, and the broader regional impact of the political and social crisis in Venezuela under Maduro's government.
