translated from Spanish: Sichel by Rojas Vade: “I would have liked much more a direct condemnation of the left sectors”

The presidential candidate of Chile Podemos Más, Sebastián Sichel, addressed the resignation of Rodrigo Rojas Vade to the Constitutional Convention, after revealing his false cancer and being investigated for perjury by the Prosecutor’s Office.The presidential standard-bearer said that “finally… Obviously, I go back to the public faith thing. Politicians are in the minimum of credibility, in the minimum, when someone plays with the public faith and is able to invent a disease not only causes pain to those who voted for him, but as a lady told me on the street, to those who suffer from cancer.” So I think it’s the minimum at this point in the party … even if there are no rules,” said the president. He also delved into the issue, pointing out that “this is not a problem only of Rojas, I want to say it very open, it is a problem of the People’s List, it is a problem of the left of Chile, of the governability that can guarantee when it effectively seems that anything goes to reach power or when it seems that everything is possible.” I would have liked much more a direct condemnation of the sectors of the left that would have asked him to resign, and what I saw rather was lukewarmness and that he made this open decision, I also say it in particular to all the candidacies, “he said. For the same reason, he said that “these are the cases in which you have to have minimum consensus: lying is bad, faking a disease in a campaign is bad, we should not pay alimony is terrible, as if we have consensus at these basic levels it would be good for all of us to make gestures to say this type of policy does not have to be allowed, it applies to this for cases of corruption also in Vitacura if they are proven.”
