The mayor of Recoleta and presidential candidate, Daniel Jadue, He assured that he is willing to participate in an opposition primary, under the condition that the defeated commit to supporting the winner.

Jadue participated on Monday as a guest in the program “A esta hora se improvisa” on Channel 13, where he discussed various contingent issues, from the constituent process, the next elections and his possible presidential candidacy.

When asked what are the priorities that the new Constitution should establish, Jadue mentioned several points that in his opinion are relevant: “I hope that the new Constitution defines the Chilean State as plurinational and intercultural, I think that is essential.”

“Furthermore, it is tremendously relevant to move towards greater responsibility for the State in ensuring a catalog of basic rights that allow everyone to live with dignity. We do not need a State that gives away things, but we do need a State that allows people with their own efforts to satisfy their basic needs without having to resort to going into debt all their lives, “he added.

Regarding private property, the mayor of Recoleta said: “It cannot be an absolute right that is above the common good and I think that should be established ”.

Regarding the autonomy of the Central Bank, he stressed that it must be maintained, but “it cannot have only the objective of containing inflation through monetary policy and must go more towards a central development bank.”

Of his possible participation in the primaries in the PC to define candidates for President of the Republic, Daniel Jadue affirmed: “I would be willing to go to a primary with all those who commit to supporting whoever wins.”

The mayor also referred to the pension system: “I believe in mixed systems, but as a third pillar. I have no problem with individual capitalization as a complementary pillar. But the problem is other one: 75% of the people who have individual capitalization have miserable pensions that are not enough to reach even half of the month (…) With retirement or without retirement, pensions were going to continue to be miserable, but I also believe that there is also an express need to move to a mixed system where the central pillar is a solidarity pillar ”.

“What the citizens and the political environment say is not that everyone is happy with the model,” said the mayor, giving as an example the case of “a bus that requires a drug of 1.6 billion pesos, whose family is trying to make a ‘cow’ (…) in this country there is no one who can solve it ”. Asked about the Venezuelan model that solves that problem, Jadue stated that “I don’t know, nor am I interested,” adding that his focus is on Chile.
