Yerko Ljubetic has been appointed as the new director of Chile's National Institute of Human Rights (INDH). In his initial statements, Ljubetic addressed the challenges faced by the INDH, noting that human rights issues can be uncomfortable for certain sectors that may feel targeted or interpret matters differently. He acknowledged the ongoing debate regarding the resources allocated to the INDH and emphasized the responsibility of the state that transcends individual governments. Ljubetic also commented on remarks made by José Antonio Kast about closing the INDH and reflected on the role of former director Sergio Micco during the social unrest in Chile. Meanwhile, in Chile's political landscape, the Christian Democratic Party (DC) has officially endorsed Jeannette Jara's presidential campaign, signaling a consolidation of the officialist electoral pact. Jara described this alliance as potentially the broadest political coalition since 1990. Discussions are reportedly progressing well regarding a unified parliamentary list. Additionally, Republican regional councilors, led by Ignacio Dülger, have submitted a request to remove Governor Claudio Orrego from office. Political analysts and figures, including former UDI president Pablo Longueira and senator Ricardo Lagos Weber, have been actively discussing the evolving presidential scenario and the implications of the DC's support for Jara, as well as the declining poll numbers of candidate Evelyn Matthei.
