Deputy Cariola and accusations of interventionism against the Government: “To accuse that President Boric is campaigning seems unfair to me”

The deputy Karol Cariola (PC) addressed the accusations of the opposition, which allude to an “interventionism” of the Government and President Gabriel Boric in the face of the plebiscite of exit of the constitutional proposal, which will be held on September 4. In this regard, he said that the criticisms against the President in this matter are “unfair.”
“The government has initiated an information campaign that is its responsibility, to carry out information processes for citizens and guarantee that it is a democratic and participatory process,” Cariola said in conversation with CNN Chile’s Zero Tolerance.

“Accusing that President Gabriel Boric is campaigning for an option, seems unfair to me because in all his statements he has been tremendously careful, especially from the point of view of the role that the Government is exercising,” added the PC legislator.
The minister of the General Secretariat of the Presidency (Segpres), Giorgio Jackson, also ruled out that the Government exercises interventionism.
“It seems to me that (the accusations) do not have any support because the dispensation that an opinion has in the Comptroller’s Office refers to not occupying resources or working time to demonstrate for a specific option and the government has fully complied with that,” he said in conversation with CHV Noticias.
“When the President in the role of delivering the text of the new Constitution is so that people can say Approve or Reject and when they ask the President for a signature he will never refuse, not doing so would be very contrary to the personality of the President,” he added.
“Perfectible” materials
Deputy Cariola referred to the content of the new Constitution and indicated that certain content of the proposal is “perfectible.”

“I believe that the constitutional text is in no way a blank check and I believe that the constitutional text has content regarding different matters, some that I have no doubt can be perfected,” Cariola said.
“I am convinced that this document, which is a basis for the new stage that Chile is going to face, can be perfectible and is a discussion that I am not closed to giving,” she added.
