The conglomerate was “surprised” at these statements and hope that the Executive will “order” their coalition.
It was precisely the president of RN, Francisco Chahuanwho referred to the statements of the head of the Interior in The Mercuryindicating that “we have been surprised that the Government has announced that it will not be neutral in the conventional constitutional process.

Given the non-neutrality of the Government, the RN leader hopes that “it will be an invitation to his coalition and understand that we have to recompose the social pact and that necessarily implies having a Constitution that is a house where everyone stays.”
Chahuán’s main judgment is that this support from the Executive “does not do the constitutional process any good, where there is still a minimal possibility that the Constitution will be a house where everyone fits and the Government seems determined not to order its own coalition and continue insisting on a Constitution of a few, which represents a few and not all Chileans”.
Meanwhile, the deputy RN, Catherine of the Royalstated that “it is bad for Chile that a Government, that a President speaks today that is going to be directly involved in an election process.”
The Secretary General of the RN, Diego Schalperalso referred to the issue, questioning the neutrality of the Executive: “Is it going to mean that they are going to intervene electorally, that they will start with campaigns to call for some political position (…) It is difficult to understand this Government.”
In addition, he pointed out that “hopefully they will clarify it on this point, because it would be extremely serious for the Government to become an activist for some of the positions of the Exit Plebiscite.”
