Keiko Fujimori is a conservative Peruvian politician and the daughter of Alberto Fujimori, the late right-wing strongman who governed Peru in the 1990s. She has narrowly lost three presidential run-offs.
In the April 2026 general election Ms Fujimori won enough votes to secure a place in the run-off. Her supporters want a tough leader to tackle crime. She will face either Roberto Sánchez, a leftist, or Rafael López Aliaga, an ultraconservative, once the final count is completed.
Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform.
