Peru: Repsol's 2022 spill consequences violated economic, social, cultural and environmental rights of communities, according to report

KLEBHER VASQUEZ / ANADOLU AGENCY / ANADOLU AGENCY VIA AFP

A new research published by CooperAcción, the Centre for Public Policy and Human Rights (Peru EQUIDAD), EarthRights International (ERI), and supported by the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), states that the 2022 Repsol's oil spill led to the violation of economic, social cultural and environmental rights.

It also affirms that "both Repsol and state authorities have failed to provide adequate and sustainable solutions to address the social and economic consequences of the spill".

We invited Repsol to comment on the allegations. The company's response is available.
