The Embassy of Peru in Madrid is the foremost diplomatic mission of Peru in Spain. [1] The current ambassador is Walter Gutiérrez. [2] [3]
Spain also maintains an Embassy in Lima, headed by its Ambassador, Alejandro Alvargonzález San Martín. [4]
History
Both countries officially established relations on August 15, 1879, under Alfonso XII and have since maintained diplomatic relations with a brief exception during the years 1936 to 1939 as a result of the Spanish blockade of the embassy during the Spanish Civil War due to the influx of refugees at the time. [5] [6]
When the Peruvian embassy in Rabat de facto closed in 1973 due to a lack of a chargé d'affaires, the embassy in Madrid became accredited to the North African country. After Peru established relations with the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, the Moroccan government began a diplomatic campaign which led to the embassy reopening in 1986, with both countries strengthening their relations. [7]
The embassy was formerly located at building number 36 of the Calle del Príncipe de Vergara. [8]
In January 2023, the embassy's surroundings were blocked by protestors as part of a series of protests in support of former president Pedro Castillo and against Peruvian president Dina Boluarte. [9]
