[HIGHLIGHTS] López Obrador thanks the Congress of Peru for repudiating him: "If they applauded me I would be ashamed"

Andrés Manuel López Obrador has been declared persona non grata in Peru. The declaration of diplomatic repudiation prevents the Mexican president from setting foot on Peruvian soil.

Mexico positioned itself in favor of former President Pedro Castillo, gave asylum to his family and received the ambassador expelled from Peru. Peru's diplomatic relations have also soured with other countries in the area, such as Colombia, whose president, Gustavo Petro, was also declared personaNonGrata in February.
