LIMA (Reuters) – Peruvian president Martin Vizcarra named retired general Walter Martos as the country’s new prime minister on Thursday as part of wider cabinet reshuffle over a clash with the opposition-held Congress.
Vizcarra also appointed attorney Luis Inchishategui as head of Ministry of Energy and Mines. Economy and finance minister Maria Antonieta Alva will remain in her role, Vizcarra said.
