Peru First (Spanish; Castilian: Perú Primero), officially the Peru First Political Party (Spanish; Castilian: Partido Político Perú Primero), is a Peruvian political party. Founded in 2021, the party is led by Martín Vizcarra, former President of Peru from 2018 to 2020.[1] [2] [3]
The party is currently undergoing its registration process at the National Jury of Elections in order to participate in the next general election. During the Peruvian protests of 2022 and 2023, the party supported demonstrations against the government of Dina Boluarte and the Congress of Peru, which Vizcarra described as a "dictatorship".[4]
