The caption says Calderon steps down next month, but this can't be right if his successor only takes over in December???

He handed to congress his last presidential report last week but will keep being president until december, is comlicated, some ppl including Calderon have suggested to change the lapse between one president and another so there is not much confusion and the new president has more time to organize it´s agenda, so far only the new Congress has already taken its place.

From what I know, Peña will use this next months to make a visit to Guatemala, Colombia, Argentina and Chile.
