Peru's First Vice-President Martin Vizcarra presented credential letters to the Governor General of Canada Julie Payette in the capital city of Ottawa on Monday.

Such credentials recognize the designation of Vizcarra as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Peru to the North American country.

Via Twitter, the former Transport and Communications minister shared highlights from the presentation ceremony.


Last September, the government official said he hoped to successfully serve as Peru's top envoy to Canada.

Likewise, Vizcarra pointed out Canada is an important partner of Peru and that he will take up diplomatic duties without neglecting his obligations as First Vice-President.
