Yeah saw that & wasn't gonna say anything but

Chile’s president-elect, the billionaire businessman Sebastian Piñera, has unveiled a new hardline cabinet, including prominent conservative figures and some politicians once closely aligned with the Pinochet dictatorship. The new interior minister, Andrés Chadwick, was a vocal supporter of Augusto Pinochet during his 1973-1990 regime, which named him president of the Catholic University Students Federation. Chadwick and the new justice minister, Hernán Larraín, were also supporters and defenders of the secretive German enclave Colonia Dignidad, which was established by the fugitive Nazi officer and paedophile Paul Shäfer in the early 60s. It later emerged that the enclave was used by security officials to torture and murder opponents of the regime.

Chilean Army 1st Cav Regt (Grenadiers)

Part of my Ukrainian War Universe

IMU the tensions in Peru and the ongoing armed forces modernization in Argentina under Millei, as well as Bolivian threats to the north and a growing pivot to BRICS, would lead to a renewed expansion of the Chilean Armed Forces planned under the final months of the late Sebastian Pinera presidency and now starting to bear fruit under Gabriel Boric who was the only leftist leader in South America to speak out in support of Ukraine to counteract all these especially given the leftist attitudes in Peru against the rightist presidency of the past years especially in the country's south.

IRL it is a one squadron/battalion (termed Group) regiment that maintains traditions of the Chilean Army cavalry and its a mainly mounted formation that for nearly two centuries, off an on, has provided the mounted travelling escort to the presidency and in wartime is operationally controlled by the 3rd Mountain Division. It also provides guards of honor for state visits. It reports as part of the Santiago Garrison Command alongside the 1st MP Regiment.

IMU such a commitment would allow thus the regiment to have a mixed role as both presidential guard and as a combat formation with two out of its 8 squadrons - the seventh being the training squadron OPCON under the Equestrian School in Quilotta's Camp San Isidro and the 8th being the dismounted honors squadron that provides dismounted public duties in the capital - being mounted ceremonial cavalry and the 3rd being mountain recon that in wartime is a part of the 3rd Division alongside the other two. All of the groups have a conscript company in keeping with the Chilean practice of conscription in the armed forces (the 4th armored group has two). The three mounted groups also have a veternary unit.

The Honors Group also hosts the Cuadro Negro exhibition team - a formation IMU mixed with personnel of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment in the 4th Division, since it is where it had been originated.

The 1st Group also hosts a vehicle company, motorbike company to provide force multipliers to the Carabineros in presidential events and a coach squadron which takes care of the presidential horse drawn coaches and the presidential cars.

Unlike the lancers IRL, each of the ceremonial mounted squadrons are organized as lancers and dragoons/mounted rifles to mirror the historical Chilean cavalry of years goneby. The mounted recon squadons of 3rd Group are trained as combat soldiers only - while the 2 other groups are trained in both combat operations and ceremonial roles, alongside the Horse Artillery Group of the Tacna Regiment - IMU a regimental OPCON unit in ceremonial events only due to its use of horses.

The regiment's other combat capabilities are 4 armoured groups - 2 armored and 1 cavalry and mechanized infantry each in support of elements of the 2nd Infantry Division (Mot) and the Santiago Garrison Command. The 1st Armored Group, which uses MBTs, operates M60s and Leopard 1s, the 2nd is a light formation armed with M10 Bookers, the 3rd is an armored cav unit with Marder 2s and the nationally produced MOWAG Piranhas via FAMAE which performs recon and light attack roles and the 4th is the largest of the groups performing mechanized infantry roles in a mix of IFVs and APCs in support of the cavalry and armor, with the M3 Bradley, M59s, Marder 2s and the Centauros in assault gun role also to provide support to the combat elements of the 2nd Division's two BCTs.

More than three years after Chilean lawmakers took on the task, the country is still working on a new constitution. The initial push ended in failure last September, when voters overwhelmingly rejected a draft that many saw as too radical. While the latest rewrite attempt includes safeguards aimed at avoiding past blunders, it still faces no shortage of challenges.

1. Why is Chile writing a new constitution?

The current one dates to the military dictatorship that ruled from 1973 to 1990. Though it’s been amended several times since Chile returned to democracy, many view the document as illegitimate because of its origins during the reign of General Augusto Pinochet, a violent dictator whose rule featured arbitrary arrests and political executions. Critics have also argued that elements of the constitution have entrenched inequality. When mass street protests began on Oct. 18, 2019, triggered by an increase in Santiago subway fares, demonstrators expanded their grievances to include problems with the pension, health care and education systems. In an effort to diffuse tensions, then-President Sebastian Pinera agreed to hold a 2020 referendum on whether to rewrite Chile’s charter and, if so, how. Almost 80% of voters said yes, and a large majority favored doing so by appointing a Constitutional Convention. 

2. What happened in the first attempt?

Electing members of the Constitutional Convention in May 2021, voters delivered a massive surprise by spurning traditional political parties in favor of left-leaning independents. Rightist members failed even to secure the one-third of seats necessary to block articles. The body rushed to finish the draft after a year of work, writing and then re-writing clauses and going as far as holding weekend and late-night sessions. In doing so, it incorporated proposals that some viewed as radical change, such as the eliminating the senate — the upper house of Chile’s bicameral legislature — and creating a parallel justice system for indigenous communities. On Sept. 4, 2022, voters overwhelmingly rejected that document, 62% to 38%. It was a huge blow to leftist President Gabriel Boric, who had publicly supported the new charter.

3. What’s different this time around?

Lawmakers went back to the drawing board. In December, following weeks of intense negotiations, they announced an agreement on a new process that divides power and responsibilities across different groups. A Commission of Experts elected by Congress has been outlining new articles since March. On Sunday, voters will elect a Constitutional Council, which will have the ability to accept, reject or modify the proposals from the experts. An Admissibility Technical Committee will oversee the work and ensure that articles do not violate a set of constitutional pillars on Chile’s territorial integrity, the right to property, branches of government and autonomous institutions including the central bank, among other entities. The idea of the structure is to ensure that the end product reflects the will of voters and the guidance of distinguished specialists, all while limiting odds of extreme change.

4. What’s been the reaction from voters and investors?

Rising voter apathy after months of political twists and turns poses a challenge to the latest rewrite effort. Only 31% of people are interested in the new campaign, according to a Criteria public opinion survey published in April, down from 60% two years prior. “There’s high risk of disengagement,” said Criteria founder Cristian Valdivieso. In a Pulso Ciudadano poll published April 30, roughly 61% of respondents said they don’t trust the process, up from 55% in January. Public attention has been more attuned to problems such as crime and inflation, with relatively little buzz on the new constitution on social networks and in the streets. Most investors are brushing off those woes, as they now see the threat of radical changes to the nation’s pro-business rules as next to nil. Since the September referendum, the peso has gained roughly 10% as uncertainty has cleared. The design of the latest charter rewrite prevents unorthodox and radical initiatives from going through, analysts at JPMorgan wrote in a May 1 research note, adding that they are overweight on local stocks. In a Bloomberg survey published on May 2, only 14% of investors cited the constitutional process as a top local political concern, versus 64% who cited debate over pension fund withdrawals.

5. Where do things stand now?

In Sunday’s election, Chileans will select the 50 members of the Constitutional Council. The election is obligatory, meaning that all registered voters will have to submit ballots or else risk paying a fine. They will choose contenders from a total of five different lists — one from the left, one from the center-left, one from the center-right, one from the right and one featuring candidates from a populist party. All eyes will be on whether any political block gets close to 30 of the 50 seats. “The elections will likely result in a fragmented body that tilts right but in which none of the competing lists has the three-fifths majority needed to pass norms on their own,” Eurasia Group analysts including Maria Luisa Puig wrote in a May 1 note. The vote will be held at a time when Boric’s approval ratings are low, likely undermining the performance of his leftist coalition, according to the note.

6. What happens after Sunday’s vote?

The Constitutional Council will start work in June and will have four months to complete its tasks. After the council produces a text, the Commission of Experts will write a report that may include observations aimed at improving the document. Those recommendations will consequently be put to votes in the Constitutional Council; if there’s disagreement, they could be put to a committee consisting of representatives of commission and the council. Ultimately, Chile will hold a referendum on the final draft on Dec. 17. If approved by a simple majority, the new charter would become law, coming into effect upon publication in the Official Gazette.
