57.6% of citizens said she has been ‘very incapable’ in her ability to govern, while another 36% described her as ‘incapable.’On Sunday, polling firm CPI released a survey showing that disapproval of Peruvian President Dina Boluarte’s administration rose to 97% this month, as she enters the final year of her term (2022–2026).In July, Boluarte’s approval rating fell to 2.1%, while 0.9% of respondents remained indifferent. These are the lowest figures recorded during her presidency. Boluarte is scheduled to deliver a national address assessing her administration on July 28, Peru’s Independence Day.Disapproval of Boluarte’s administration is largely tied to the 98.2% of the population who rejected her recent salary hike, which more than doubled her previous compensation. In the central and southern regions of the country, disapproval rose to 98.8%, while in the Amazonian east it stood at 97.7%.The central and southern Andean regions of Peru have maintained a tense relationship with Boluarte since the beginning of her term, due to the dozens of deaths that occurred during protests in late 2022 and early 2023, following the ousting of former President Pedro Castillo.En Perú los grandes medios de comunicación son parte de la coalición golpista que destituyó al Pedro Castillo y hoy sostiene a Dina Boluarte junto al Congreso, los grupos de poder económico, el PJ y las Fuerzas Armadas y PolicialesEntrevista en @diario_red_lat_ @lalineape pic.twitter.com/xddIl1u7bG— Anahi Durand Guevara (@AnahiDurandG) July 27, 2025The text reads, “In Peru, the economic elites, the judicial police, the armed forces, and the mainstream media are part of the coup coalition that dismissed Pedro Castillo and today holds Dina Boluarte and Congress.”Additionally, 57.6% of respondents said Boluarte has been “very incapable” in her ability to govern, while another 36% described her as “incapable.” Seventy percent said they want Boluarte to step down as soon as possible, while 29% preferred she complete her term, which ends on July 28 of next year.In a recent public appearance, Boluarte downplayed the poll results, saying she gauges her approval based on what she sees in the streets. Mocking the polling companies, she challenged them to simply give her administration a score of “zero.”Peru’s President Boluarte Sets Record as World’s Most Unpopular PresidentAnother survey, published Sunday by the newspaper La Republica and conducted by the IEP polling firm, showed her disapproval rating at 93.9% and approval at 3.6%.
