Lima: Peru is preparing for a historic political transition after President-elect Keiko Fujimori formally received her official credentials in the capital city of Lima, confirming her victory in the national election
Keiko is set to take the oath of office on July 28, a date that coincides with Peru's Independence Day celebrations. Her election marks a milestone in the country's political history as she becomes the first woman chosen through a popular vote to serve as Peru's president.
The incoming leader is the daughter of former president Alberto Fujimori, who governed Peru between 1990 and 2000 and remains one of the country's most influential and controversial political figures. Keiko's victory signals the return of the Fujimori political legacy to the nation's highest office after years away from power.
Supporters view her presidency as an opportunity to restore stability and strengthen the economy, while critics are expected to closely monitor how her administration handles democratic institutions and governance. Her swearing-in ceremony later this month is expected to attract significant attention across Latin America.
