Peru: Alan Garcia reclaims presidency
Former president Alan Garcia won Peru ’s presidential election over Ollanta Humala with approximately 55% of the votes compared to Humala’s 44.5%. Garcia (image) assured supporters that he will run a “thrifty and austere” administration in order to avoid destroying the Peruvian economy as he did during his presidency between 1985 and 1990. Aside from ensuring that he does not repeat past mistakes, Garcia will have to find a way to unite a deeply divided country hurt by ethnic and class divisions.
