PERU – Peruvian President Pedro Castillo has accepted the resignation of his prime minister and will reshuffle his cabinet once again amid a lengthy battle between the executive and legislative branches.

Former Prime Minister Anibal Torres, a staunch ally of Castillo, had challenged the opposition-controlled congress to a confidence vote last week. But congress declined to hold such a vote on Thursday, saying conditions for it had not been met.

Opposition lawmakers have twice impeached Castillo but failed to oust him, although they have managed to censure and fire several cabinet members.
