Argentina's Foreign Minister Santiago Cafiero met Thursday with Chile's new Ambassador to Buenos Aires, ahead of President Gabriel Boric's visit next Sunday in his first trip abroad since taking office.
Chile's leading labour unions Friday marched through the streets of Santiago in demand of financial aid and other types of assistance. But despite wearing facemasks and holding permits to circulate under lockdown they were halted at the gates of the La Moneda presidential palace when they tried to deliver a letter addressed at President Sebastián Piñera.
