Daily News: Legal Reforms in Peru and Tensions in the Art World
In Peru, the General Commander of the National Police, Óscar Arriola, has expressed concern over a new legal proposal. This is the organic law of the Public Ministry, currently being debated in Congress. According to Arriola, this regulation could negatively affect citizen security and police functions.
The police chief warned that if this law is passed, the police institution could lose important powers protected by the Constitution. This debate is fundamental to the country's justice system, as it defines how prosecutors and police work together in criminal investigations.
On the other hand, the Women and Family Commission of the Peruvian Congress is also facing significant criticism. Several technical reports indicate that the commission's new legislative proposals are unnecessary. The main problem is that these regulations already exist in current legislation or are unconstitutional.
Former Congresswoman Tania Pariona has pointed out that Congress seems to ignore the laws already in force. This situation creates "normative duplication," meaning that repeated laws are created that do not help improve the situation of women and families in the country, but rather complicate the legal system.
In the international sphere, the art world is experiencing a moment of great tension. The 2026 Venice Biennale, one of the most important cultural events in the world, is in the midst of a major controversy. The controversy has sparked protests and significant resignations within the organization.
The reason for the conflict is the participation of Russia and Israel in the event. Many artists and activists believe their presence is inappropriate due to current international conflicts. This situation has sparked a deep debate about the relationship between art, politics, and ethics in global events.
These news stories show a day full of institutional challenges and ethical debates. While in Peru the focus is on the efficiency of laws and security, in Europe the debate centers on how political tensions affect international culture.
