As Argentina commemorates 50 years since the 1976 coup, vast crowds filled the streets to protest and warn the ultraright government of Javier Milei, marking a significant collective response against historical injustices.

A coalition of former foreign ministers and deputy ministers has voiced strong support for Michelle Bachelet, criticizing the decision made by José Antonio Kast’s government to withdraw official backing for the former president's candidacy for the Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN), labeling it an "international embarrassment."

Former presidential candidate Jeannette Jara confronted José Antonio Kast's government regarding the historic rise in fuel prices, criticizing that "it is fighting fire with gasoline."

The mayors emphasized, "The soaring fuel costs are not an abstract issue: they directly affect transportation expenses, food prices, essential services, and household economics," warning that the situation also severely strains municipal management, raising costs for essential services like waste collection, public space maintenance, and community safety.

The government's initiative, introduced with urgency for immediate discussion, will now be reviewed by the Senate in its second constitutional procedure.

From Congress, opposition legislators questioned the government's decision regarding fuel prices, pointing out that it is inconsistent for the administration to relieve the super-rich during an 'emergency' while burdening working and middle-class families with higher costs.

Through a statement, the coalition rejected the increase in fuel prices and questioned Finance Minister Quiroz's justification for it: "A quick look at the figures reveals that the country has levels of debt and public spending well below the OECD averages, and a deficit situation similar to that left by previous administrations," they noted, adding that Kast's government seeks to impose its ideological agenda "at the expense of the peace of Chilean families."

The survey emerges in a context where drug policies have primarily addressed this relationship from legal or health perspectives, sidelining its cultural, social, and territorial dimensions.

"They released the police dogs again, letting them rip our flesh apart. One dog attacked a fellow detainee and started biting his genitals. He bled to death in my arms. A doctor, protected behind a gate, examined him from a distance and said: 'Throw him out,'" recounts one of the testimonies read by Albanese during her report presentation to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva.

This absurdist play uses the iconic Plaza Baquedano monument in Santiago as a stage for a dramatic comedy that is as bewildering as Chile itself. The cast includes María Elena Duvauchelle, Roberto Poblete, Paula Sharim, Daniel Muñoz, Nicolas Zárate, and Camila Oliva, under the dramaturgy and direction of Emilia Noguera.
