Ollanta Humala began his presidency when he was sworn into the office of President of the Republic of Peru on 28 July 2011. On the same day, he represented his cabinet, headed by the non-partisan Salomón Lerner Ghitis. On 10 December 2011, Lerner stepped down, following fierce protests against a mining project.{{Citation |title=Peruvian Cabinet chief Salomon Lerner steps down; interior minister takes over post |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=11 December 2011 |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/industries/peruvian-cabinet-chief-salomon-lerner-has-resigned-official-close-to-him-says/2011/12/10/gIQAa3X4kO_story.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111211045735/http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/industries/peruvian-cabinet-chief-salomon-lerner-has-resigned-official-close-to-him-says/2011/12/10/gIQAa3X4kO_story.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=11 December 2011 |accessdate=11 December 2011}} He was replaced by Interior Minister Oscar Valdés.
