: Leftist Peruvian President Pedro Castillo has accepted the resignation of his prime minister and will reshuffle his Cabinet once again, he said on Thursday, amid a lengthy battle between the executive and legislative branches.

The confidence vote challenge was meant to pressure Congress amid tense relations between the two branches of government. His presidency has been marked by turnover in senior government positions. Castillo is now set to name a fifth prime minister - his top adviser and spokesperson - since taking office in July last year.If Congress had issued a vote of no confidence, Torres and the entire Cabinet would have been forced to resign.

Castillo stopped short of saying Congress had issued a vote of no confidence, although at least one close ally, former commerce minister Roberto Sanchez, said the legislature's decision meant confidence had been withheld.
