Peru joins Shield of the Americas; Fujimori seeks intelligence support

Peru has been incorporated as a member state of the Shield of the Americas, a US-led hemispheric security initiative, with Keiko Fujimori attending the meeting chaired by President Trump. Fujimori requested intelligence cooperation from member countries, signaling a deepening of Peru's alignment with US security priorities. The move may shift regional security dynamics, though the scope of the initiative and Peru's specific commitments remain unclear.
