Feb 13 (Reuters) – Peru’s Congress has scheduled a debate for Tuesday on a motion to remove President Jose Jeri, congressional leader Fernando Rospigliosi said on social media on Friday, as the government grapples with a scandal over reports of the president’s undisclosed meetings with a Chinese businessman.

Jeri, a former head of Congress, was sworn in as president in October after lawmakers convened an emergency session to oust his predecessor.
