The report of the Army Intelligence Directorate (DINE) -which revealed The counter– which motivated President Sebastián Piñera to say his controversial phrase on October 20, the now famous “we are at war against a powerful enemy” continues to generate headaches within La Moneda.
The “Zeta Plan” of the Army’s intelligence affirmed that the institution had learned that the Venezuelan and Cuban intelligence had been carrying out an “insurrectionary offensive against Chile.” According to the director of the DINE (Army National Intelligence Directorate), General Guillermo Paiva, it would be a cell of the G2 (Cuban Intelligence Service) that had entered the country: “They would have a battalion of troops for their operations inside Chile. 600 clandestine agents, experts in urban guerrillas, who entered Chile as refugees, many of them trained in Cuban subversive schools such as Punto Cero. “
The problem is that they affirmed that “Pedro Carvajalino, from the government Chavista organization Zurda Konducta, would be one of the SEBIN / G2 commanders in charge of the insurrectionary offensive for Chile.” Carvajalino was a Venezuelan youtuber adherent to Nicolás Maduro who responded in a sarcastic tone to the publication of this report.
However, according to Defense Minister Mario Desbordes, they have not contacted the military institution to find out the veracity of the document that his predecessor Alberto Espina made available to the President. “I have not had time to speak with the Army about whether what is said in the intelligence report is true. The reports are secret and whoever filters can lie and no one can deny them later,” Minister Mario Desbordes told Cooperative radio.
“I arrived three months ago so I don’t have reports that indicate details like that (…) I’m going to ask for a little more information today and see what can and cannot be answered; I received the proposal for a communiqué from the Army, and the truth is that it is not much what it says, “” he added.
That said, Desbordes does not believe that Piñera’s controversial “We are at war” “had an influence on later or earlier violence, because the violence had already occurred.”
“Maybe we stayed a bit in the 80 ‘”
The issue was also addressed by the undersecretary of the Interior, Juan Francisco Galli, who in an interview with Radio Pattern he admitted that “maybe we are a bit in the 80s when we think about intelligence.”
According to the undersecretary, before the intelligence “worked based on informants, but today the information is available on the web is relevant and you have to have the ability to process that information and distinguish that information that is true from that that is false.”
Likewise, in the same vein as what was indicated yesterday by the Government, Galli stated that the DINE report was one of the documents that the President had in his hands. “The President had at his disposal the greatest amount of information available, but this was something that was not expected, there was a context of convulsion,” he said.
In this context, he asked to speed up the processing of the bill that modernizes the intelligence system. “The question I would ask myself is what happened to that bill. It was approved unanimously in the Senate and, unfortunately, in the Chamber of Deputies it has made very little progress because the opposition, mainly from the Broad Front, has opposed it, and has labeled this project with unpresentable qualifications ”.
Then in Radio Universe, Galli delved into the subject. “Naturally the intelligence information is not possible to comment on … The President reacted with the information available at that time,” he said.
Regarding the need to modernize the national intelligence system, the undersecretary indicated that “a good reflection of what we demand of intelligence, intelligence is nothing more than information and useful knowledge for decision-making … intelligence of the 21st century it is being able to process the information that is available ”.
