The dismissal of Peña, a Paraguayan 'House of Cards' for the return of Horacio Cartes as the undisputed "strong man" of the country

Paraguay experiences political upheaval as former president Santiago Peña is arrested amid corruption allegations, leading to a power shift back to Horacio Cartes. Peña, previously a favored politician, faces accusations related to a banking scandal, while Cartes, who previously governed, manipulates the situation from behind the scenes. The new president, Pedro Alliana, is seen as a puppet of Cartes, raising concerns about the future political landscape in Paraguay. Analysts predict tough decisions ahead for the government, particularly regarding economic adjustments and foreign relations, especially with Brazil.
