LIMA, July 20 (Xinhua) The declaration of Pedro Castillo being the president-elect of Peru has generated high hopes among the people, who expect him to bring about change, political observer Jerjes Loayza said Tuesday.
In an interview with Xinhua, the sociologist and professor at the National University of San Marcos said the expectation is that the progressive candidate of the Free Peru party, who takes office July 28, will lead a more social-democratic government.
Asked about Castillo s campaign pledges, Loayza said his ability to deliver on those promises will depend on how political negotiations pan out in Congress, which is scheduled to be installed on July 27.
