PERU: After Miners' Deaths, Opposition Says Garcia Must Go.
REUTERS.UK/ The nation's left-wing Nationalist Party wants President Alan Garcia declared "morally unfit" to lead, but the move to make him to leave office is likely to fail in the Congress. Garcia is a pro-business centrist whose term has seen deadly conflicts over natural resources including last week's blockade that left 6 protesting miners dead. "President Garcia is morally incapable," said Nationalist leader Ollanta Humala in Congress. Though Peru's economy has grown, Garcia's approval rating only lingers around 30% as the poor say the boom passed them by.
