The announcement of a constitutional accusation against former minister Nicolás Grau created tensions between the Republican Party and Chile Vamos. UDI rejected public pressure from deputy Agustín Romero and stressed the need for serious grounds.
On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, Republican Party deputy Agustín Romero urged UDI and RN to join a constitutional accusation against former finance minister Nicolás Grau.
UDI's bench of deputies responded with a public statement. They said political decisions must rest on serious grounds and not on public pressure or electoral calculations.
The UDI members recalled that the Republican Party voted against a similar accusation against former justice minister Marcela Ríos. They stated they will focus on advancing public policies and addressing the country's social urgencies.
