Peru’s National Jury of Elections (JNE) officially proclaimed Keiko Fujimori as the winner of the country’s presidential runoff election. The daughter of imprisoned former president Alberto Fujimori — who himself authorized his lawyer to request a humanitarian pardon on the same day — Keiko’s ascent to the presidency marks a dramatic full-circle moment in Peruvian politics. After three previous presidential bids and years of legal battles, the Fujimori political dynasty is now poised to return to the presidential palace.
