After turbulent weeks where the opposition withdrew “indefinitely” from the security table after the pardons granted by President Gabriel Boric to 12 convicted of crimes in the framework of the demonstrations of the social outbreak and of the ex-frontist Jorge Mateluna, the minister of the Interior, Carolina Tohá, valued the approaches of the opposition benches to reinstate the agreement.
Although the UDI itself conditioned his return to the table if the President “revokes” the pardons granted, the head of the Interior valued the signal sent by the bench of trade union deputies and assured that “the fact that statements are being made and expressions of willingness to go to that table is a positive thing.
However, Tohá warned the opposition that “there is no tool in which the authority (President Boric) can reverse the pardons, another thing is the analysis that other organizations can do regarding how the process was carried out. A tool for the authority directly do it does not exist”.
“But I want to stay with the fund, which is the will to find ways to recover that job, because there are not agreements to be reached. Many agreements have already been reached and closing that commitment will mean transforming those commitments into a declared will to carry out those ideas among all”, complemented the minister Tohá.
