(MENAFN- The Peninsula) QNA

Asuncion: The new Paraguay's president was sworn in on Tuesday for the next five years after his April election victory.

Pena took the presidential oath outside Asuncion's government palace in a solemn ceremony attended by South American leaders, the king of Spain, alongside other officials from many countries.

Pena, 44, secured a solid election victory in April and replaces Mario Abdo Benitez. Both are from the conservative Colorado Party, which has dominated Paraguayan politics for 75 years.
