A razor-thin victory, a divided nation: What awaits Peru’s next president?

With Keiko Fujimori projected to narrowly win Peru's presidential race, the nation finds itself on the brink of significant political change. The razor-thin margin highlights deep divisions within Peruvian society, raising concerns about social cohesion and economic policy under her leadership. Fujimori's right-wing platform promises reforms, but her victory could exacerbate existing tensions, particularly with the left-leaning factions that vehemently opposed her candidacy. This election outcome will have broader implications for regional stability and Peru's economic policies.
