One of the most unpopular heads of state in history was removed from office Friday in a unanimous congressional vote, after nearly three years in office.

Former Peruvian President Dina Boluarte took power on Dec. 7, 2022, quickly sworn in after the eclectic populist socialist President Pedro Castillo launched a botched self-coup. As vice president, she assumed office when Castillo’s government refused to back him, leading to his arrest. Her vacillating political allegiances, reliance on the military to suppress protests, alleged corruption, and surging crime made her tremendously unpopular, earning single-digit approval ratings beginning in January 2024. After years of resilience, she was finally ousted in a 122-0 vote early on Friday after she failed to come to Congress to defend herself against corruption allegations and questions about surging crime.
