On July 19, 1977, the Committee for the Defense and Struggle of Coronel Portillo (CODEL-COP) was created, an organization that brought together all the union, peasant and even native forces of the province. At that time, the Committee of Revolutionary Workers of Peru (CTRP) was also included. This organization was part of the political work developed by the MIR-EM (Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria - El Militante) in the Ucayali region. CODEL-COP represented a moment of consolidation of popular and union forces in Coronel Portillo, although later the MIR-EM would lose control of some of these organizations to other political forces.
