Peru's opposition: Cut economic ties with Chile


(LIP-jl) -- Peru's opposition party, the Partido Nacionalista Peruano (Peruvian Nationalist Party) has called for an end to economic negotiations between Peru and Chile until the matter of the 'pending' maritime border is resolved.

According to the leader of the party and former presidential candidate Ollanta Humala, Peru has no other alternative but to suspend economic talks due to Chile's insistence that all border issues, both land and maritime, were resolved years ago.

"It is absolutely necessary to suspend all of the activities that look to consolidate a commercial agreement with Chile until we resolve our ocean limits. This is one of the options the government must take on instead of only focusing its efforts on going to the Hague," said Humala.

Humala, who narrowly lost the presidential election to now-President Alan Garcia, also praised the Peruvian Chancellor's Office for submitting a map of Peru's defined ocean limits with Chile to the United Nations last week.
