Jara: \u00abI Go Wherever I\u2019m Invited\u00bb<\/span><\/h3>\nThe Unidad por Chile candidate criticized the far-right candidate for refusing to participate in the debate organized by Mega and for not yet confirming attendance at the Chilevisi\u00f3n debate, despite both being scheduled well in advance.<\/p>\n
\u00abI regret that he uses excuses today to avoid attending\u2026 these are indeed the forums where citizens can hear us face-to-face,\u00bb she said, noting that she has confirmed her participation in all five planned debates.<\/p>\n
\u00abI confirmed my presence in the five debates from day one. He uses excuses. Chile deserves candidates who face the questions,\u00bb she declared.<\/p>\n
Jara asserted that if the Republican candidate believes \u00abhis ideas are the best, he should be able to defend them directly.\u00bb <\/p>\n
\u00abArrogance is a poor advisor,\u00bb she emphasized.<\/p>\n
The issue even extended to the so-called \u00abBad Boys debate,\u00bb where candidate Franco Parisi (PDG)\u2014who secured nearly 20% of the votes in the first round\u2014warned he would not participate if Kast continued to be absent. In response, Jara called for the event to go on.<\/p>\n
\u00abI go wherever I\u2019m invited. I regret that due to Kast\u2019s decision, some media are pulling out of debates,\u00bb she expressed, as reported by Radio Agricultura.<\/p>\n
Two Campaign Models, Two Visions for the Country
<\/span><\/h3>\nDuring the press briefing, Jeannette Jara defended her campaign style, characterized by territorial outreach and media presence: \u00abI don\u2019t shy away\u2026 I always respond directly.\u00bb She starkly contrasted her approach with Kast\u2019s strategy: \u00abThat\u2019s why he ran away to the regions.\u00bb <\/p>\n
The offensive also included a warning connecting campaign behavior with potential governance capabilities, particularly regarding security, a central theme of the far-right\u2019s agenda: \u00abCourage to face a debate is fundamental. If one wants to confront organized crime later\u2026 they can\u2019t keep hiding,\u00bb she suggested.<\/p>\n
In closing her remarks, Jara reinforced her central message: \u00abKast is a risk for the country.\u00bb She announced that by Friday, she would be adding new figures to the \u00abJara Command 2.0,\u00bb with new members from social, cultural, scientific, and artistic backgrounds.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
