· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
Keiko Fujimori has officially taken office as the President of Peru for the next five years, facing significant challenges including organized crime and political instability. The daughter of former president Alberto Fujimori, she won a tightly contested election against progressive candidate Roberto Sánchez, largely thanks to overseas votes. Fujimori's primary focus will be combating extortion, which has surged dramatically in recent years, impacting small businesses and leading to numerous fatalities among transport workers. Additionally, opposition groups are calling for investigations into civilian deaths during protests in 2022 and 2023, and they demand reforms to laws perceived as weakening the fight against organized crime.
