Bachelet hints at 2029 presidential run, shaking Chilean political landscape
InterferenciaLO·CL·about 8 hours ago
Chilean deputy Diego Schalper (RN) publicly challenged former President Michelle Bachelet to take clear positions if she intends to lead the opposition, following her announcement of a potential third presidential candidacy. The statement reflects internal ruling-party unease over Bachelet's possible bid, but her actual candidacy remains unconfirmed. This signals early positioning ahead of the next presidential election.
