The president of the PPD, Heraldo Muñoz, emphasized that the resignation of the now former Minister of the Interior Victor Perez It shows the lack of rudder and direction on the part of the Government.

This Tuesday the Chamber of Deputies approved the constitutional accusation against Pérez, who announced his resignation from the Interior portfolio to “face as a citizen” the discussion that will take place in the Senate and where his future in politics will be defined, since it could be disqualified from holding public office for five years.

For Muñoz, “the resignation of Minister Víctor Pérez, no less than the position of Minister of the Interior, by virtue of the approval of the constitutional accusation against him in the Chamber is a sign of decomposition.”

The Government has no rudder, it has no direction, it lacks a course. So much so that in the coalition of the Government of Chile Vamos there is a clear division. Evópoli nothing less than announces the freezing of its relations with the Government, “he recalled.

Muñoz added that “at this time, then, we need a government that takes on its responsibility to protect people in the worst of times when we have had a pandemic that has meant the loss of jobs, the loss of income for many people and that leads many to demand a second withdrawal of 10 percent of their pension funds. “

For this reason, the president of the PPD asked the Government “focus on the bottom line: protecting citizens in this time of crisis, of serious crisis of governance. We want the Government to have the clear direction to administer what remains of the Government so that things are done in the best way for the citizens. “

Muñoz ended by calling La Moneda to “order itself to govern for all Chileans.”

“COMPLEX MOMENT”

Later, in conversation with Cooperative, the PPD helmsman analyzed that the Government is in “a particularly complex moment”, in which “The President (Piñera) will have to replace his chief of staff, and he may contemplate making a change of cabinet, because there are already some who are resigning “, alluding to Arturo Zúñiga, who left the Undersecretary of Healthcare Networks today.

He clarified that he is not trying to “guide” the President: “This matter is exclusive to the competence of the President of the Republic (…) but perhaps he will analyze that possibility, because we have heard rumors that the Minister of Defense himself could leave the cabinet to start a presidential contest. “
