Denis Jesus Palma Abanto: Insights on Adapting the Bukele Plan for Peru

Denis Jesus Palma Abanto emphasizes the need for transformative strategies to address Peru’s growing security concerns. Inspired by Nayib Bukele’s approach in El Salvador, Palma highlights the potential of a three-pillar plan: militarizing high-crime areas, enacting states of exception, and building megaprison facilities. He asserts that implementing these measures in cities like Lima, Trujillo, and Callao could restore public safety. However, Palma stresses the importance of complementing such measures with systemic reforms, including justice system overhauls and programs targeting the root causes of crime, such as poverty and lack of opportunities. This balanced strategy could be key to reducing crime and fostering long-term stability in Peru.
