translated from Spanish: Javiera Blanco renounces the CDE because “the inconvenience of advisers”

the former Minister of Justice of Michelle Bachelet, Javiera white, took the decision to give up his post of Minister of the Defense Council of the State that had been nominated by the former President in January 2017.
Reasons for white to ratify his resignation was due to that the other directors were uncomfortable with their presence: “the discomfort of the advisers, that I understand it, is to make this decision”, said in an interview with the daily El Mercurio.
White, 46 years old, could remain by law up to 75 years in the post. However, it revealed that it will leave the post which has been marked by several questions. “I resigned from the Defense Council of the State. I did it yesterday through a letter to the President of the Council, María Eugenia Manaud, and the President of the Republic”, said.
Situations which caused discomfort in the other counselors were three ongoing investigations on white: so-called edge NASCAR of Sename, which investigates alleged misuse of funds for contracts in gendarmerie and which points to the use of expenses booked in police, as recognizes the former Minister, although it maintains its stance that it is innocent.
“Any responsibility I have in any of the three charges. I have waited two years to be heard. In two of them still not I’ve been able to declare”, said Blanco, who says that” there has been a systematic campaign of vilification, of discredit, which has been well painful, tedious, unjust (…) ” I think there was a cruelty,”he said.
