La empresa estadunidense Lockheed Martin confirm\u00f3 este jueves que Per\u00fa adquiri\u00f3 12 aviones de combate F-16 para modernizar su flota \u00e1rea luego que el gobierno pag\u00f3 una primera cuota de 462 millones de d\u00f3lares por la compra.<\/p>\n
La operaci\u00f3n financiera se concret\u00f3 este mi\u00e9rcoles a pesar de la negativa del presidente de facto del pa\u00eds, el izquierdista Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Balc\u00e1zar, quien pidi\u00f3 postergar la adquisici\u00f3n hasta que el pr\u00f3ximo gobierno asuma en julio.<\/p>\n
La posici\u00f3n contraria del presidente desat\u00f3 una crisis pol\u00edtica que provoc\u00f3 la renuncia de dos ministros claves del gobierno, el canciller Hugo de Zela y el ministro de Defensa, Carlos D\u00edaz, quienes estaban a favor de firmar el contrato por los F-16.<\/p>\n
Esta nueva crisis se produce en el contexto de unas elecciones presidenciales ca\u00f3ticas, cuya segunda vuelta est\u00e1 programada para junio.<\/p>\n
\u00abNos enorgullece que el F-16 m\u00e1s avanzado que hemos producido contribuya a proteger la soberan\u00eda nacional de Per\u00fa\u00bb, declar\u00f3 Mike Shoemaker, vicepresidente de Lockheed Martin citado en un comunicado de la compa\u00f1\u00eda.<\/p>\n
La empresa resalt\u00f3 que \u00abacoge con satisfacci\u00f3n el anuncio del gobierno de Per\u00fa de adquirir 12 nuevos aviones F-16 Block 70\u00bb, para modernizar su flota a\u00e9rea.<\/p>\n
