AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoJustice Ministry Under Fire: About 500 protesters in Santiago demanded Fernando Rabat resign over sentence reductions for at least 56 convicted child sex offenders. The opposition says it will seek his impeachment; President José Antonio Kast has said the state failed victims. Fire Prevention Bill: Kast issued a substitute veto to rewrite legislation on forest and rural fires, arguing it lacks dedicated funding and clear rules for investigating and prosecuting arson. The government also objects to requirements it says could burden small landowners. Human Rights Institute: A proposed overhaul would replace the institute’s board with a smaller body selected through a process involving the president and Senate, while cutting regional staff and protection lawyers. Critics warn the changes could weaken its independence and leave victims with less support. Regional Diplomacy: Kast’s first European tour included meetings with Spain’s right and attendance at the Ibero-American Summit in Madrid, where Argentina’s Javier Milei was also present. Brazil’s Lula and Mexico’s Claudia Sheinbaum stayed away.
