FNX Magokiler Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Two of the decisions taken by the Republican Party caused discomfort yesterday in Chile Vamos, it is that the group led by Rojo Edwards, surprised his colleagues from the opposition and marked his independence, leaving behind the weeks in which they had acted in coordination. The first was the definition taken on Saturday by the Republican general council on rejecting the draft of the Constitution issued by the Convention, also claiming "their own political path in defense of the ideas of freedom", as they pointed out in their vote. politician. The determination found some questioning in Chile Vamos, a block that has chosen not to influence the campaign, leaving the leading role to the citizens to avoid polarization. "We regret that the Republicans have rushed into the Rejection decision. It had been a matter that had been discussed, in terms that we were going to prioritize civil society first and also the deployment of the conventional ones," said the helmsman of RN, Francisco Chahuan. An idea that was shared by the president of the UDI, Javier Macaya, who stated that "we believe that this is from the citizenry, not from the political parties, not from the Republicans who perhaps made a decision -in our opinion-, somewhat hasty (. ..) that it be civil society that expresses itself regarding this and we are going to wait until June 4, which is what corresponds to us, to make definitions in this matter". The backroom of the AC against Siches To this was added in the afternoon the announcement by the Republican caucus of a constitutional accusation against the head of the Interior, Izkia Siches, despite not having at that time a text of the libel or the support of Chile Let's go. "He did not apply the law and the Constitution. We are willing to apply the constitutional tools," argued the Republican deputy for La Araucanía, Stephan Schubert, when giving an account of the action that, they say, was announced yesterday in the store to avoid leaks. Well, it was something they had been talking about for a long time. In fact, already in March when assuming her functions, the deputies announced an offensive against the minister. Since then the idea has found little reception among the benches of RN, the UDI and Evópoli, and this time was no exception. Today the heads of the deputies of the bloc came out to deliver a public statement in which, although they acknowledged sharing a critical view of Siches' performance, they questioned the timing and form of the libel, which comes just after the government decreed a state limited exception in the southern macrozone. According to the head of the UDI bench of deputies, Jorge Alessandri, "the constitutional accusation does not contribute anything to these problems." While his counterpart from Evópoli, Francisco Undurraga, specified that although "we condemn all the inactions of this Government, we are not going to concur with our votes to endorse a terrible political action by a right-wing party." Meanwhile, the head of the RN bench of deputies, Andrés Longton, maintained that despite the problems, "we believe that escalating to a constitutional accusation is not the time or the way, understanding that we have tools to continue demanding that the Government behave as the public expects". In addition, in Chile Vamos they pointed out that the issue did not generate consensus within the Republican Party either, that it would have had a divided vote and that it did not even have the support of its top leaders. "Within the Republican Party, even they in the caucus were divided on this presentation, it was noted yesterday. We do not know the legal basis of the accusation and I regret that some boys, for wanting to stand out, believe that it is a mechona week," deputy Miguel slipped Notched (RN). The foregoing is ruled out by the community and by the bench, from where they have ensured that the action was unanimous and that their leaders also supported it. But that in the case of the president of the party, Edwards, he could not pronounce himself, because if the libel reached the Senate he would be a judge in it. Regarding the lack of a text, they point out that in the past, today's officialdom also presented several libels without having a text at that time. Republicans defend libel After Chile's words Let's go, the deputy for Republicans, Cristián Araya, said that "we are concerned about the double standard, because on the one hand in the corridors they tell us that the minister has not lived up to the task, that she has seriously compromised the security of the nation, but when the cameras come on they say a very different thing. "Chileans will have to choose what type of opposition they want, a firm opposition, really, like that of the Republicans, or a half-hearted opposition," stressed Araya, adding that what is happening in the country "are sufficient arguments to demonstrate the inaction of this government in the face of the main concern of Chileans, which is security". With this, the deputy reaffirmed the presentation of the accusation, while emphasizing that the action has the support of the 14 deputies of the party. "There is absolute unity in this matter," he specified. Congressman Johannes Kaiser said that "Chile Vamos is going to recognize, Congressman Alessandri recognized it, the fairness of our demands, that is, when such an obvious situation of detriment to security occurs, I hope that sanity prevails and we help this Government to place a more suitable person for the position". "You have to be consistent in life, the worst evaluation of a minister two months into the government is Izkia Siches, and that is because he has not done his job, he has not fulfilled any part of Chile," said his peer. Mauricio Ojeda, adding that "we side with the true victims and not with the calculations and moments that politicians talk about." https://www.emol.com/noticias/Nacional/2022/05/18/1061328/republicanos-y-diferenciascon-chilevamos.html Edited May 18, 2022 by [Ty]M@g0k1l3r
