“We have invited many, yesterday I spoke with the President of the Dominican Republic (Luis Abinader), today I was with the Foreign Minister of Mexico (Marcelo Ebrand), I spoke with Alberto Fernández (Argentina), with President Pedro Castillo (Peru), I spoke with President Joe Biden (USA), who told me that they were going to try to get Vice President Kamala Harris to come ”, indicated the deputy of Magellan.

“We invite each one of whom we speak, it depends on their agenda, they all have very complicated agendas. We are doing the confirmations, there is a team in charge of March 11 in particular ”, he added.

Last week it became known that Biden had called Boric to congratulate him on his victory in the elections on December 19, when he won José Antonio Kast in the ballot.

“The two leaders discussed their commitment to social justice, democracy, human rights and inclusive growth. President Biden underscored the importance of cooperation between the United States and Chile to promote ecological cooperation, ”said a statement from the US State Department on the occasion.

For his part, Boric highlighted Biden’s call and affirmed that they spoke about fair trade, the climate crisis and the strengthening of democracy.

“I just got a call from the President of the United States. In addition to the joy shared by our respective electoral triumphs, we talked about common challenges such as fair trade, the climate crisis and the strengthening of democracy. We will continue talking, ”the president-elect tweeted.

Equally, It should be noted that Boric did not confirm any guests for the occasion, which is prepared by the current Chilean Foreign Ministry, and will be held at the Senate headquarters in Valparaíso on March 11.
