Government communication and security updates in Chile and Argentina

In Chile, the government has rejected calls from ruling coalition parties to modify its communication model. Interior Undersecretary Máximo Pavez stated that the decision made in May remains unchanged: the Ministry of the Interior, acting as the government's political coordinator, will continue to manage communications through its minister. This follows pressure from coalition members seeking a dedicated government spokesperson to address recent coordination issues among various ministers.

In Argentina, President Javier Milei has ordered a restructuring of security at the Quinta de Olivos presidential residence. The Casa Militar will assume full responsibility for the security of the residence, as well as the President's temporary residences, within a maximum of 60 days. The administration stated this move aims to increase efficiency and security standards amid global insecurity trends and preparations for the upcoming visit of Pope Leo XIV.
