The mayor of Recoleta, Daniel Jadue (PC), assured that there is a “anticommunism” between faces of the center-left, after several emblematic of the sector questioned his eventual candidacy for the presidential seat.
“In leaders of the center-left there is anti-communism. In leaders, not in sectors -He remarked in an interview with Third– It is highly probable that citizens have had an anti-communist bias upon leaving the dictatorship, for the campaign carried out by the dictatorship, for the physical and political extermination of the CP, which was prolonged in some sectors of the Concertación after the formal end of the dictatorship, but the public has stopped believing in that campaign. “
Some of the skeptics with the idea that the mayor is the standard-bearer for the bloc in 2021 are Senators Felipe Harboe (PPD) and Francisco Huenchumilla (DC), in addition to the latter’s co-religionist Carmen Frei, but Jadue played down his criticisms by raising than “it is very likely that they are less factor of unity in the center-left than I can be today”.
On the other hand, after Jadue raised deliver sea to Bolivia to settle one of the problems that Chile has with its neighbor, the helmsman and possible president of the PPD, Heraldo Muñoz, called him not to make populism with foreign policy.
“What I have said and that Heraldo did not read, because it seems that it is not very good to read, is that issues of this relevance must be resolved by the citizens and that the opinion of the leader does not matter. That is what he has never been willing to do. to do Herald, It seems that he does not like much that the citizens decide“, he finished.
In addition, he questioned that “the same people who today say that we are not a factor of unity have come several times to ask for the votes of the communists so that they can win an election.”
“One is struck by some may join the communists when it is our turn to vote for them, but may not join the communists when it is their turn to vote for us. That will finally be evaluated by citizens. It seems to me a bit double standard, a bit hypocritical, “she said.
“Let’s all go to elementary school”
For this reason, the Communist Party has offered to the former Concertación that “let’s all go to primary school and That the program that wins the primary school becomes the backbone of the program that we all agree on“, so as to avoid a supposed” imposition “of its conglomerate, as some in the bloc fear.
“If the citizenry chooses the DC candidate, we would have to support him, I doubt that will happen, but we are indeed available. We have always been in a position to support the candidate who most supports the citizens. I hope the others are willing to do the same, “he added.
Returning to the rejection of the possibility of Jadue as a presidential letter, the communal chief pointed out that “the reactions are a bit obvious”, since for now, and as some have even recognized, “the leadership does not appear in that center-left that ruled so many years that appears competitive and enjoys the confidence of the public. “
“This generates concern, especially in those who are not very in favor of participating in anything that they do not direct. But I think the minute of unity will come. After a period in which everyone tries to strengthen their own possibilities, the minute will come where everyone sits at the table and it will be seen if we are available to give them a second government to the right or to give them an alternative, “he insisted.
