translated from Spanish: Alfredo Moreno said there is a need to move forward in the legislative part of the Araucanía Plan

Alfredo Moreno, current minister of OO. PP, emerged from criticism for the so-called “Araucanía Plan”, which he led during his time in the Ministry of Social Development and said that the projects that were presented then, have made little progress in Congress.
This, in the face of the recent events of violence in La Araucanía, which on Saturday led to the confrontation between civilians, by the eviction of municipalities that were in takeover by Mapuche communes.
“It is a problem with deep roots and that we have not known as a country to solve, it requires an effort of all Chileans, both from the Mapuche communities and the political sectors and the region to be able to solve it,” Moreno said in conversation with radio Universo
The Secretary of State said that the economic strategy in the area has, but that this has not been accompanied by, other components of the Plan, such as legislative aspects.
“When I left, most of the projects of the new indigenous legislation, the Ministry of Indigenous Peoples, the Council of Indigenous Peoples, which has made very little progress in Congress at this time, was presented,” said the now-minister of the OO.PP., who added in this regard that “there is responsibility for all, but there is the legislation that is presented by the Government. I think it can be accelerated today, (but) it must be borne in mind that the priorities in the country since October have been others, have taken over the Congress and the public concern.”
