Peru’s new president offered lawmakers a plan to bring elections forward by two years on Monday, after the ouster of her predecessor last week sparked protests that have left at least seven dead.

President Dina Boluarte, previously vice president, was sworn in last week after former President Pedro Castillo was removed by Congress and arrested for trying to dissolve the legislature while preventing an impeachment vote against him. Castillo supporters argue Boluarte was not elected by the people. Demonstrators have taken to the streets to demand new elections, some calling for Congress to be shuttered and Castillo released.
