Diplomatic Departures: Cuba's Envoy to Peru Exits Amid Asylum Tensions

Cuban Ambassador Carlos Zamora left his post in Peru after meeting with the deputy foreign minister. The reason behind his departure remains unclear. Meanwhile, Peru plans to modify its asylum convention amid tensions with Mexico regarding asylum granted to a former prime minister.

The Cuban Ambassador to Peru, Carlos Zamora, has left his position and the country after a significant meeting with Peru's deputy foreign minister on October 28. The specifics surrounding his replacement were not disclosed by Peru's foreign ministry.

In another development, Peru announced intentions to amend an international asylum convention. This comes amid ongoing tensions with Mexico, triggered by Mexico's decision to grant asylum to a former Peruvian prime minister.
