Cooperation between Chilie and Peru has improved recently, with a renewed diplomatic drive helping to alleviate the tensions which have built up between the countries over a long-standing maritime border dispute. President Michelle Bachelet and Peruvian counterpart Alan GarcĂ­a are in discussions to develop a political and economic alliance that will aim to tackle social inequality and strengthen co-operation with Asia.
