Luis Galarreta

Luis Galarreta is the current Prime Minister of Peru. He has recently gained attention for his role in the new government's policy initiatives. In a recent address to lawmakers, Galarreta pledged that the administration would bring its free-trade agreement with Hong Kong into force within the current year. This move is part of a broader strategy to establish Peru as a significant commercial link between South America and the Asia-Pacific region. Notably, the government's initial policy pronouncements did not directly address mainland China or the Chinese-operated Chancay megaport, despite the trade deal's focus on Hong Kong. Galarreta's statements highlight the new government's economic priorities and its approach to international trade relations in the Asia-Pacific.
