CGTN

Peruvian opposition legislators presented another impeachment motion against President Pedro Castillo on Tuesday, their third formal attempt to oust the leftist leader since he took office last year, calling him morally unfit for office.

The motion comes amid escalating tensions between the two government branches, with Castillo saying the legislature is attempting a coup d'état, and opposition lawmakers countering that he is trying to illegally shut down the Congress.
