Peru 2026 political transition and security agenda

Overview

President Keiko Fujimori has expanded her security agenda to address rising violence, specifically targeting extortion and kidnapping within the public transport sector. The administration is implementing an intelligence strategy to “choke off the funding routes” used by criminal gangs and has pledged increased resources to strengthen the tactical capabilities of the National Police of Peru (PNP). This security push follows data from the National Institute of Legal Medicine (Sinadef) reporting 134 homicides in the first 26 days of her administration, with 76.1% involving firearms.

In late August 2026, the Fujimori administration formally requested urgent legislative powers from Congress for a 120-day period to implement reforms across eight strategic sectors, including public security, economic dynamism, state modernization, infrastructure, housing, and sanitation. Key security proposals include the ability to classify certain criminal organizations as terrorist organizations, the use of cell phone tracking and geolocation, and the blocking of illicitly used devices. The request also seeks to allow the Armed Forces to participate temporarily in external security and prison operations. Consequently, the Commission of Constitution has summoned Prime Minister Luis Galarreta to explain these requests, while the government has declared a state of emergency in five prisons.

President Fujimori is facing mounting scrutiny over political ethics and governance. Investigations allege her party, Fuerza Popular, utilized Argentine consultants, including operative Fernando Cerimedo, to fund disinformation campaigns totaling approximately 658,000 soles. These efforts reportedly involved 24 AI-generated YouTube avatars to promote her candidacy. Additionally, Fujimori has faced criticism for her leadership style after missing six of the last nine Cabinet meetings in August. Public criticism has also intensified, with former presidential candidate Carlos Álvarez accusing the administration of failing to prepare legislative measures and retaining officials who have failed to combat criminal organizations.
