The Republican Party circulated a video asserting that President Kast increased the Universal Guaranteed Pension. Fact Check has debunked this claim, labeling it as false. The increase in benefits was predetermined by the Pension Reform, enacted and signed into law by the preceding government – not the current Kast administration. The video misrepresented the origin of the pension increase, falsely attributing it to the current president’s actions. This highlights a case of misinformation regarding social benefit policies in Chile. The increase was legally mandated prior to Kast assuming office, and the Republican Party’s statement is inaccurate. This instance underscores the importance of verifying political claims regarding public funds and social programs in Chile.
