The question “Who is the president of Latin America in 2025?” is a bit misleading, because Latin America is not a single country but a region spanning many nations across Central and South America (and parts of the Caribbean). Each Latin American country has its own head of state. However, there is one regional office that sometimes uses the title “President pro tempore” (or rotating chair) for a bloc of Latin American countries such as CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States).

So, to address your question, here are two possible interpretations and what the current situation is (as of 2025):
1. No Single “President of Latin America” — Each Country Has Its Own Leader
Because Latin America is a collection of sovereign nations, there is no single president for the entire region. In 2025, each country (Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, etc.) has its own president or head of state.
To illustrate:
- Mexico’s President (2025): Claudia Sheinbaum — she took office on October 1, 2024. Wikipedia
- Ecuador’s President (2025): Daniel Noboa was re-elected in April 2025 for his second term. Wikipedia
- Nicaragua’s President (2025): Daniel Ortega has led the country and continues in office in 2025. Wikipedia
- Others: Many Latin American countries are holding or preparing for elections in 2025 (Bolivia, Chile, Honduras, etc.) as-coa.org+2as-coa.org+2
So, if you meant “which person heads Latin America in 2025,” it depends on which country you refer to.
2. The “President Pro Tempore” of CELAC (the Latin America / Caribbean regional body)
If by “President of Latin America” you meant a regional representative, the most relevant is the Presidency pro tempore of CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States). This is a rotating position among member states.
- As of April 2025, the President pro tempore of CELAC is Gustavo Petro, the president of Colombia. Wikipedia
- The pro tempore presidency allows the head of state of a member country to represent CELAC at regional and global forums for a given term. Wikipedia
Thus, if we interpret your question as asking about regional leadership, Gustavo Petro holds that role in 2025.
- There is no single president for all of Latin America — each country has its own head of state.
- For a regional office, Gustavo Petro serves as President pro tempore of CELAC in 2025. Wikipedia
If you meant a specific country or another regional organization (e.g. OAS, MERCOSUR), I can certainly look up that for you. Which one were you asking about?
