Keiko Fujimori sworn in as president of Peru following narrow election victory

Keiko Fujimori, a conservative politician and daughter of a former Peruvian president convicted of human rights abuses, was sworn in as Peru's ninth president in a decade. She narrowly won the June runoff election by less than 50,000 votes and will serve until 2031. Fujimori's Popular Force party and its allies control half the Senate seats, strengthening her position. Her campaign focused on improving security in a country plagued by extortion rackets. Over the past decade, only three Peruvian presidents have been elected by popular vote, with others coming to power due to resignation or congressional removal over corruption.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual information about Fujimori's election and political background without overtly positive or negative language. It provides context about Peru's political history and Fujimori's platform without taking a clear ideological stance. While it mentions her family's legal issues
