This Monday, a group of parliamentarians from National renewal met with the leader of the Republican Party, Jose Antonio KastTo explore the proposal put forward by the former deputy to specify with Chile Vamos a single list of candidates for the Constitutional Convention.
This comes after Kast sent a letter this morning to President Sebastián Piñera in which he asked him to summon the helmsmen of the coalition – to which the Republican Party does not belong – to hold a meeting to address this issue.. “The Presidents pass and the Constitutions remain”, said the former presidential candidate.
The proposal released last week was not well received by all the leaders of National Renovation. Even the leader of the community and today Defense Minister Mario Desbordes, said that “The unit like that just because, no. You have to have a minimum of common criteria, I also respect. Because José Antonio Kast treats us as traitors in a tweet and two minutes later he talks about unity “.
Along these lines, the president of RN, Rafael prohens, also expressed his refusal due to the questions of the former deputy towards the coalition and the government and pointed out that “We maintain the initial position: it is not part of Chile Vamos.” And I add “If he wants to go, let him be within the bloc and be part of the government. Otherwise, we have nothing to talk about.”
More about Constitutional Convention
However, the parliamentarians of the bench who arrived at the meeting – such as Senator Francisco Chahuán, and deputies Camila Flores, Sofía Cid, Harry Jürgensen and Pablo Prieto – stated that “What the voters of the sector want is that we face the Constitutional Convention with unity that implies equality of conditions, the ability to once again have the will of a majority and be able to aspire to the eventual expansion of the Chilean coalition. We go not only to the Republicans, but also to the sectors of the political center “, said Chahuán.
Meanwhile, the deputy Camila Flores added that “The RN senators and deputies that we have met today have also wanted to summon the (party) board and its president Rafael Prohens so that they can, as soon as possible, sit down to talk with the Republican Party and try to agree on principles and common minimums that are fundamental. Here, beyond the names, we believe that it is key that the candidates who go to the Constituent Assembly are people who defend our convictions “.
Meanwhile, Kast said that he hopes that a discussion table will be held for all the parties of the ruling bloc “And see if those points in common are stronger than the particular interests of the communities”. “We are for unity, as are the senators and deputies who have invited us to this conversation,” commented the leader of the Republican Party.
“It is not the same to go in separate lists than to go in a unit list. We are very well prepared to seek unity according to what the President of the Republic raised and what the RN parliamentarians raised “added.
