Castillo also did not have a good relationship with the local press, which he accused of being biased and responding to political and economic interests. “This press that does not serve the country uses the conditional “would”, “would”, “might”, to hide its true objective of delegitimizing and normalizing a negative image of me before the Peruvian people. All Peruvians have witnessed that every day without a break they have only dealt with Pedro Castillo as one more alleged criminal,” he said in a speech to the nation in October.
