Hey, I just read an article that really caught my attention about Chilean politics and human rights. It’s called “Me duele que él no haya dado la cara…” Matthei por Pinochet y los DD.HH. and it’s pretty informative.
Basically, the article is about the former Chilean Minister of Labor, Evelyn Matthei, who was recently asked about her relationship with the notorious dictator Augusto Pinochet and his human rights abuses. She stated that she was unaware of any human rights violations and didn’t know anything about it.
This statement caused controversy in Chile, as many believe that it is impossible that someone like Matthei didn’t know about Pinochet’s actions during his dictatorship. The article goes on to provide more context about Pinochet and the human rights abuses that occurred during his regime.
I found this topic particularly interesting because I remember studying about Pinochet and his regime in college, and the impact it had on Chilean society. It’s important to learn about these issues and hold our politicians accountable for their actions and beliefs.
Overall, I think this is an important topic to be aware of, especially in today’s political climate where human rights are constantly being challenged. It’s important to educate ourselves and stay informed about these issues.
