Bachelet Re-enters Chilean Politics, Signals Possible 2026 Run Against Kast

Former President Michelle Bachelet is convening leaders of six opposition groups in Ñuñoa to coordinate against the administration of José Antonio Kast, hinting at a possible third presidential bid. This marks a reversal of her earlier retirement from politics and underscores the center-left's lack of new leadership. The meeting could reshape opposition dynamics ahead of the next election cycle.
