The Peruvian government is considering postponing the contract to purchase F-16 fighter jets from Lockheed Martin in the United States. The U.S. Ambassador to Peru made a threatening statement in response to this. In an interview with the Peruvian media on the same day, Basalcal said that the huge amount of the military purchase project would bring a "very heavy" debt burden to the country. Considering that the current government is a transitional government, it is proposed that the next government handle the matter. The U.S. Ambassador to Peru, Bernie Navarro, subsequently posted on social media that if the Peruvian government lacks sincerity in negotiations with the United States and harms U.S. interests, as a representative of the Trump administration, he will "use all available means" to uphold and promote prosperity and security in the United States and the region.
