    Chile: Security and Spokesperson ministers fall in first cabinet reshuffle of Kast's government

    “I did not expect to carry out this cabinet reshuffle, it was not what I had planned for this stage,” Kast said

    Chilean President José Antonio Kast on Tuesday carried out the first cabinet reshuffle of his administration and removed from their posts the Security Minister, Trinidad Steinert, and the Government Spokesperson, Mara Sedini, in a reorganization that amounts to the fastest ministerial adjustment in Chile since the return to democracy in 1990. The decision comes just over two months after the inauguration of the far-right president, against a backdrop of falling presidential approval to around 40% and an increase in public disapproval to 60%.
