The Minister of Defense, Mario Overflows, analyzed the present of National Renovation and its role in the face of the constitutional plebiscite.
In an interview with Third, the former RN helmsman said he feels “right, no surnames. But a moderate center-right, dialogue, with a strong social vocation, that is not afraid of certain concepts such as solidarity. I am a great admirer of Angela Merkel, of Pablo Casado“.
“Now, that there are people who like or follow Milton Friedman strictly, it’s okay. That there are people who feel that the economy has to be only market, that’s fine, I think it has to be market social, but both positions are compatible within a wide arc that exists in the center right“, he pointed.
Desbordes also addressed his relationship with Carlos Larraín, one of his main rivals within the party. “The relationship It has been tense for many years, but it is a natural thing, because we have different visions“, he assured, adding that”he prefers a small and orderly party, and hopefully with 12 deputies. I like a large and diverse party, they are different approaches. I respect his, it is more difficult for him to respect mine “.
“Then he said this that the party has gone to the left because it does not share things that we have raised in recent months, with a social vision that is not the one he has, with proposals that He feels that they are from the left, but that for any European center-right party they are the base“, he raised.
A new constitution
The Defense Minister reaffirmed his intention to vote for the option “I approve” in the next constitutional plebiscite.
“Now, I am for the Approve because I believe this Constitution has been extraordinarily positive, but I do feel that there is a majority interest in a constitutional change“said Desbordes.
“Countries need to have a common umbrella (…). I feel that the Constitution today It is not recognized as its own by the majority of Chileans and that is a very negative factor“, emphasized the minister:”The Constitution has good things? Of courseAnd there are also other things that I don’t like in this Constitution. “
Likewise, the authority clarified that with “social rights” it does not have any problem: “The right to education, health, to live in a pollution-free environment is guaranteed, equal rights are guaranteed … I mean, what do you need to add to that catalog? Specific things. Housing, for example, some want to add details to health, “he said.
Presidential option?
Mario Desbordes ruled out, for the moment, being a presidential candidate, ensuring that he is focused on his work in the Ministry of Defense.
“I am fully dedicated to being Minister of Defense. In fact, I completely changed the press guidelines, the activities I go to. Being able to be in the morning sessions, I have decided no; we have given this a twist, thinking about what is best for the ministry and for the Armed Forces“, he pointed.
“Every politician would like to be a presidential candidate, whoever says otherwise is lying, but I’m not working here for that“, Hill.
