The Chilean government has significantly reduced its economic growth projection from 1.8% to 0.7%. Simultaneously, the Fiscalía, Chile’s public prosecutor’s office, confirmed that Ambassador Gabriel Zaliasnik has been formally charged in the "Caso Hermosilla" (Hermosilla Case). This case involves alleged irregularities. Furthermore, the Corte Suprema (Supreme Court) has upheld the removal of parliamentary immunity (“desafuero”) for Senator Calisto, paving the way for potential legal action against him. These developments mark a period of political and economic uncertainty in Chile. The news was initially published by CIPER Chile, a local investigative journalism outlet. The confluence of lowered economic expectations and escalating legal issues involving high-ranking officials signifies a challenging period for the Chilean administration.
