يَوْمَ الثُّلَاثَاءِ، أَدَّتْ كِيكُو فُوجِيمُورِي الْيَمِينَ الدُّسْتُورِيَّةَ أَمَامَ الْكُونْغْرِسِ فِي لِيمَا، وَتَوَلَّتْ رِئَاسَةَ بِيرُو. وَأَصْبَحَتْ أَوَّلَ امْرَأَةٍ يَنْتَخِبُهَا الشَّعْبُ لِهٰذَا الْمَنْصِبِ. وَتَسْتَمِرُّ مُدَّةُ حُكْمِهَا خَمْسَ سَنَوَاتٍ، مِنْ عَامِ ٢٠٢٦ إِلَى عَامِ ٢٠٣١. وَحَضَرَ الْمَرَاسِمَ مَسْؤُولُونَ مِنْ دُوَلٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ.

فَازَتْ فُوجِيمُورِي فِي جَوْلَةِ الْإِعَادَةِ فِي يُونْيُو، بَعْدَ سِبَاقٍ مُتَقَارِبٍ مَعَ رُوبِرْتُو سَانْشِيزَ. وَكَانَ الْفَارِقُ أَقَلَّ مِنْ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ صَوْتٍ. وَقَالَتْ فِي خِطَابِهَا إِنَّ الْأَمْنَ أَوَّلُ أَوْلَوِيَّاتِ حُكُومَتِهَا. كَمَا وَعَدَتْ بِدَعْمِ اِقْتِصَادِ الْبِلَادِ وَمُوَاجَهَةِ الْجَرِيمَةِ. وَقَالَتْ إِنَّهَا تُرِيدُ بَلَدًا آمِنًا وَمُتَّحِدًا.
