Peru has had since 1900 two periods focused on solving boundary disputes. The first one, from 1902 to 1942, aimed efforts at negotiations to fix Peru’s international borders with its five neighbors. The second one, between 1995 and 2014, aimed at solving all pending boundary issues, including fully implementing boundary treaties with Ecuador and Chile, as well as defining maritime limits with both countries. In sum, half of the time elapsed since the year 1900 Peru’s foreign policy centered on solving peacefully disputes regarding the country’s international boundaries.
