Peru's President Jerí Faces Inquiry Over China Meetings
Peruvian interim President José Jerí faces potential impeachment proceedings following revelations of undisclosed meetings with Chinese businessmen, prompting a congressional inquiry and public prosecutor investigation. Jerí claims he is the victim of a smear campaign intended to destabilize the country, while opposition lawmakers express concerns over transparency and potential conflicts of interest amidst growing US-China competition for influence in South America. The investigation, known as "Chifagate," centers on meetings held at a Chinese restaurant and a closed shop in Lima's Chinatown.
