Peru President's Dina Boluarte Salary Rises to $10,000, Triggers Backlash | Firstpost America | N18G

Peru's President Dina Boluarte has doubled her salary to $10,000 a month, nearly 30 times the national minimum wage, despite having one of the world’s lowest approval ratings at just 2%. The raise, quietly announced via decree, comes months after her government denied such plans. Officials say it’s to match salaries across Latin America, but critics call it tone-deaf, given Peru's poverty and ongoing political turmoil. Boluarte, already under fire for corruption scandals including "Rolexgate," now faces backlash for what many see as a "golden parachute" with just a year left in her term.
