About Ana Cecilia Gervasi

Lived 1966 – 2024 (aged 57). Ana Cecilia Gervasi was a Peruvian lawyer.

Ana Cecilia Gervasi Diaz (1 December 1966 – She was also at different junctures Peru's Consul General in Toronto and Washington DC, and a counsellor and delegate of Peru to the United Nations in New York City and Geneva, and to the World Trade Organization.

Foreign Affairs Minister Gervasi was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs as part of President Dina Boluarte's new cabinet on 10 December 2022, following the arrest and impeachment of Pedro Castillo. None of the 17 ministers appointed were members of a political party with any seats in Congress. On 13 December, Gervasi summoned the ambassadors of Mexico, Bolivia, Argentina, and Colombia after their governments had signed a joint communique expressing concerns over Castillo's dismissal and arrest. Gervasi said on Twitter she "reiterated to them that the presidential succession is constitutional and that the decisions of former president Castillo on December 7 materialized a coup d'état".

Gervasi resigned as minister on 6 November 2023 after she failed to secure a bilateral meeting between Boluarte and U.S. President Joe Biden at a summit in Washington. A formal meeting with Biden at the White House was considered an important step in gaining international legitimacy for the Boluarte administration following Castillo's arrest.

Death On 4 September 2024, Gervasi returned from Switzerland where she was working as a diplomat. That same day, she suffered a fall and injured her leg but refused to receive medical help. That was the last day she was seen alive. Police were called to her home after she had not been heard from for several days preceding her death.
