The Ministry of Foreign Affairs finalized the removal of the chief of staff of Minister Antonia Urrejola, Carola Muñoz, and transferred her to the Division of Cultures, Arts, Heritage and Public Diplomacy of the Foreign Ministry, where she will begin her duties next April 1st.
The change occurs after the controversy generated as a result of the leak from the Foreign Ministry itself of an audio of a private meeting, where they discussed, in an informal tone, regarding various national and international authorities. The foregoing earned Urrejola numerous criticisms, who at that time gave up resigning from office.
