In 1988, Abimael Guzmán gave the so-called 'Interview of the Century', in which he announced the siege of the city of Lima as part of the strategic balance of the PCP-SL. This interview marked a turning point in the subversive strategy, indicating the intention of turning Metropolitan Lima into the priority scenario of struggle. The announcement of the siege of the city would materialize later between the end of 1989 and the first half of 1992, when Lima would effectively become the PCP-SL's priority scenario of struggle. The interview was part of the consolidation of the 'strategic balance' proclaimed by the Shining Path in its war against the Peruvian State.
