  1. Great. Another right wing American puppet. In 2021, Kast met in Washington with Republican Senator Marco Rubio and approximately twenty American business executives with investments in Chile.

  7. Yeah, I can't say I blame anyone for voting against a candidate that wants the state to control your property and finance decisions

  8. "FRANCE24" woiuld of course call him 'far-right' . Again, why is it far-right to curb illegal immigration? Also, how on earth is there an actual Communist candidate in 2025 with China, Venezuela, North Korea, and Cuba being constant reminders to people how it just becomes an oligarchy with extra steps?

  12. What can Europe not get about immigration? The issue is with illegal immigration. What is so hard to understand? BTW, I'm an immigrant to Chile and was welcomed here. I came in through the front door, though.
