Senator Luciano Cruz-Coke called on the Partido Nacional Libertario to decide whether to join the government or stay in opposition. PNL leaders rejected joining and said their loyalty is to their ideas.
Evópoli senator Luciano Cruz-Coke said Sunday on Estado Nacional that the PNL must make a clear choice. “The PNL has to take an option. I believe it should choose to enter the government,” he said.
PNL vice president Hans Marowski replied that the party does not have to choose between being in government or opposition. “Our loyalty is with the ideas we promised Chileans,” he stated. He added they will support the government only if it advances its objectives and will not renounce their identity.
PNL caucus leader Cristóbal Urruticoechea said no party has been more loyal to the government but rejected joining a coalition with differing ideals. “We are open to everything good the government does, but watchful of things we do not agree with,” he said.
