Peru: Government change in Lima

Another victory for the right in Latin America: Keiko Fujimori, daughter of former President Alberto Fujimori who jailed his rivals and was sent to prison, narrowly won the Peruvian presidency with a margin of 0.27%. She has run for president three times before and lost each time by narrow margins. Weeks after the second round of her fourth attempt, she is declared the winner with just 50.135% of the votes. Her left-wing rival Roberto Sanz claims fraud without evidence; supporters promise protests. In Israel, connections are celebrated: 'We will strengthen ties.'
