A viral video showed opposition lawmakers announcing more than 2,000 amendments to the national reconstruction project. Biminister Daniel Mas and President José Antonio Kast criticized the strategy as an obstacle to growth.
On Friday morning, a video of PPD deputy Jaime Araya went viral on social media. The lawmaker stated that opposition parties including the PC, Frente Amplio, PS, PPD and DC would present around 2,500 amendments to the reconstruction project.
Araya said: “It is not a flood, we are already in the tsunami”. He added that the goal was to create a complex debate for the government. Biminister Daniel Mas replied on X that a certain sector of the left had decided to turn its back on growth.
President José Antonio Kast lamented that part of the opposition aimed to obstruct the project. Spokesperson Mara Sedini accused legislative sabotage. Senator Luciano Cruz-Coke of Evópoli also criticized the “blatant bad faith” of left-wing deputies.
