During the Latin America, Caribbean, and European Union Summit in 2008, which was held in Peru, the German government announced a donation to the Peruvian state for the construction of a Memory Museum. Alan García's government initially rejected the offer, but accepted the donation on March 27, 2009, and announced the construction of a museum dedicated to the victims of the period of terrorism lived in Peru, during which the Shining Path terrorist groups and Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement faced the Peruvian State.1 According to the final report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, terrorism caused about 69,000 deaths between 1980 and 2000.
