translated from Spanish: Piñera makes a deaf ear to Cecilia Perez’s request for apologies against PS

The meeting in La Moneda between Sebastián Piñera with the presidents of the Chamber of Deputies, Iván Flores (DC), and the Senate, Jaime Quintana (PPD), seemed to be the right opportunity to put an end to the guerrilla police this week, the Executive and the opposition following the accusations of the vocera minister Cecilia Pérez against the Socialist Party and its links to drug trafficking.
In fact, both heads of the legislative chambers withdrew from The Palace, noting in a joint voice that they discussed the issue with the representative and raised the need for “clarification” by the sayings of his minister. “We have been very clear with the President. In this frank dialogue it is necessary to end some unfair pressures. We believe that the spokeswoman’s statements were unfair,” Quintana said.
For his part, Flores noted that “we set out by asking that terms come out of the dictionary of both institutions that might be offensive to both sides, such as ‘anti-patriotism’ or ‘obstructionism’.
However, there was no such clarification. When it was the turn of the President’s voice, the Representative merely asked that the meeting talked about the need for a “due relationship of collaboration and respect that must exist between the different powers of the State”.
Piñera did not comment on the sayings of her minister spokesman and withdrew without answering questions. But he did refer to the approval in the Chamber of Deputies of the tax reform project, the offer of help to Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro to fight fires in the Amazon and his trip to France to participate in the G-7 summit.
