In Peru's presidential election, insecurity and instability are major concerns for voters. Keiko Fujimori, daughter of former president Alberto Fujimori, is running on a tough-on-crime platform, while left-wing candidate Roberto Sánchez promises sweeping changes. Both candidates face challenges from political exhaustion, student protests, and the country's history of frequent presidential impeachments. Fujimori's campaign focuses on combating organized crime and extortion, which have affected nearly 30,000 businesses and transport workers in 2025. Sánchez advocates for nationalization of resources and increased state control. With no majority party in Congress and two candidates representing different political extremes, analysts predict continued instability regardless of the election outcome.
