There were dramatic performances alluding to Human Rights Violations committed by police was just so but there was also music and celebration just entire families had come to show that their resolve to fight for social equality remains strong to the but today marks the day that chile a war if it up would be abuse of always being marginalized were here to commemorate and say that we want a new chilling cold was but the peaceful demonstration that so many had called for was not to be was just 300 meters from the main gathering in santiago who did then dole set fire to 2 churches the 1st known as the paris of chiles police force then they torched another regarded as a National Heritage monument was by the time firefighters arrived it was too late.

Regular pacts that the foam these bigos with explosives and the targets government offices and so theres no doubt in big clement or deny it we know about who are behind this and thats the challenge of course these attacks is against the commitments they claimed that they are doing something in the Peace Process so the the violates all the terms of that agreement that they made with the us in the family so the taliban has to realize that the road to peace the former it is to end this once we do everything not only happen government but the International Community what we all do is to pursue the taliban to end this nonsense war and violence.
