The president of the Chamber of Deputies and Deputies, Diego Paulsen (RN), said he will retire, at least temporarily, from politics after his current term in Congress ends.

Paulsen’s statements (33) come after the parliamentarians rejected the motion of censure against the board of directors he has presided over for eight months, when he became the youngest legislator to take office.

In an interview with The second, the deputy said that “the vote was a show of support for the serious work we have done as a table of the Chamber; always thinking about the well-being of the country, respecting the institutions and the Constitution ”.

Although he valued that as a parliamentarian he has been able to “help many people”, he also regretted that “My family costs have been too high”: He has missed the birthdays of his wife and children, as well as his first day of gardening in Temuco.

“I never imagined that it would be so hard to be a regional deputy”said the legislator for the 22nd district of the Araucanía Region.

When asked if he will run for a next parliamentary term, Paulsen replied: “I have decided to retire from politics. I could repost, but I won’t. My twins were born in my first parliamentary term. I saw them so little and they were so tiny that they didn’t recognize me; I was not part of their lives. I couldn’t make them sleep or feed them. “

However, he clarified that with this he is not definitively closing the doors to politics: “whoever is born a cicada dies singing. I’m never going to get out of politics one hundred percent, I vibrate with it. Even, after fifty years I would love to be mayor of a commune in my region”.
