Peru approves short-term aid for drivers amid fuel protests
The Peruvian government has approved a temporary plan to support fuel prices for drivers involved in freight and passenger transportation, aiming to alleviate the burden of rising prices that has led to protests and riots in certain areas, especially near the border with Brazil. The government will start providing this support tomorrow, Saturday, for a period of three months, covering between 15% and 20% of the costs depending on price fluctuations. This move comes in response to angry local residents and communities demanding measures to ease the burden on households and businesses away from the capital, Lima.
