Reuters exclusively reported that Peru’s populist presidential front-runner Yonhy Lescano plans to renegotiate a fairer distribution of mining wealth if elected to lead and allow imports of cheaper natural gas. Lescano told Reuters he hopes to lower the cost of natural gas – which accounts for nearly half of the country’s energy supply – by ratcheting up competition and allowing gas imports. He said he would support the construction of a gas pipeline between Bolivia and Peru.
