translated from Spanish: Boric: “There are no conditions” for a national agreement with the former New Majority

After figures and parties of the former New Majority hinted that it would be positive to conclude an agreement with the Broad Front, for the municipal and governors elections next year, Deputy Gabriel Boric referred to this possibility give it a hit. According to the parliamentarian, “there are no conditions for a national agreement, because there are many places where mayors of the former New Majority represent very different things than the Broad Front; Quilpué, San Miguel or San Fernando, to give some examples,” la Tercera said. However, it leaves the door open so that “citizen primaries can be evaluated in other communes where, as a result of the debate, we will see that there are programmatic coincidences. Or even unconditional supports, as I hope will happen in the case of Recoleta, where we recognize a powerful work of popular transformation,” he stressed, alluding to Daniel Jadue. For Boric, the important thing is to discuss projects, visions and bet on local leadership, before a deal is made. However, the Broad Front decided this week to “open up to dialogue” with former New Majority parties, ahead of next year’s elections. However, there is reluctance with the Christian Democracy, a party that they criticize for the agreements it has reached with the Government, on such emblematic issues as tax reform.
