Uruguay returns to the left after moderate presidential campaign
ai generated text
Yamandu Orsi won the presidential election in Uruguay, defeating Alvaro Delgado. Orsi secured 784,523 votes with just over half the ballots counted. The center-left party released a statement saying "joy will return". Delgado, the presidential candidate of the center-right ruling coalition, conceded defeat, congratulating Orsi. Orsi, 57, a working-class former history teacher and two-time mayor, thanked his supporters.
This is a victory for all of Latin America and the Caribbean.
It was thought to be very difficult, but the FA is the most voted force. The merit goes to the thousands of men and women who worked on the ground, in each location, in each city, who gave us lodging in the tours, all the people who helped us to make this miracle called Frente Amplio.
It is the victory of a people, a people that is getting rebellious.
I personally have nothing to hope for, my immediate future is the cemetery, but I am interested in the fate of young people, who when they are my age will live in a very different world.
I am going to be the president who calls again and again for national dialogue.
I will be the president who calls for national dialogue again and again, who builds a more integrated society and country.
These people will also have to help build a better country. We need them too.
The country of liberty, equality and fraternity has triumphed once again.
I called Yamandú Orsi to congratulate him as the president-elect of our country, and to place myself at his orders and begin the transition as soon as deemed appropriate.
With sadness, but without guilt, we can congratulate the winner.
