Paraguayan Vice President Pedro Agliana took office as head of state after the ouster of President Santiago Pena Pedro Agliana, 52, who has served as vice president since 2023, will lead the country until the end of his current presidential term, which ends in August 2028. In a speech after the oath, he promised to stabilize the economy and provide support to citizens, most of whom lost their savings due to the financial crisis. The president of Paraguay, Santiago Peña, announced his resignation following the collapse of the local bank Oeno, to which he was allegedly linked. The account contained nearly $850 million in government funds. After the bank was blocked, almost 3 million Paraguayans lost access to funds, meaning almost half of the country's entire population.
