The minister of the General Secretariat of the Presidency (Segpres), Ana Lya Uriarte, denied the statements of the president of the Socialist Party, Paulina Vodanovic, and ruled out having been against the cabinet change made by President Gabriel Boric last Friday.
The foregoing, within the framework of the conversation that Vodanovic had with the interim president of the Liberal Party (PL), Juan Carlos Urzúa, where he assured that the ministerial adjustment and the departure of the now former MOP minister, Juan Carlos García, was “a bad decision of the Government” and that “Ana Lya is also against it”.
