The crossing between both officials began after last week Bielsa went to the Chilean Foreign Ministry to express his dissatisfaction with the rejection of the port and mining project “Dominga”. The ambassador criticized the decision, saying: “It would be great if they let us know“, accusing that he had not been notified of the cancellation of the project.
Urrejola’s controversial leaked statements
In the leaked audio you can hear Urrejola in a private meeting with his collaborators thinking about what response to give to Bielsa’s accusations.
“We have a lot of room to hit this jerk. And we must take advantage of it because Argentina is preparing CELAC and will not want to open a flank”, pointed out one of his advisers at the beginning of the exchange.
Then Urrejola affirmed: “What Bielsa claims, because if we are going to go to the bottom, not to the form because the form because the form is a disaster, but deep down he’s absolutely right. They invite (Bielsa) to a dinner, eat, toast, heal, talk and stick the plume with the theme of the platform.
Alex Wetzig, Secretary General of Foreign Policy of Chile also participated in the conversation and assured: “I told you, my conversation when I called him the other time, he was formal and friendly as far as could be. And Bielsa immediately accepted that he had screwed up. I have the impression that here it can also be more or less the same. I am not going to refer to the issue of the continental shelf, because What is irritating to me is the Dominga issue. That weá is terrible“.
“Enough, this jerk, he does what he wants when he feels like it And the explanation is that he is crazy?” Urrejola said at one point angrily.
Then he explained that he had already spoken with Santiago Cafiero and had sent him a message to clarify the situation: “I told him that the Dominga issue was a unanimous decision of the council of ministers.”
Later, with an angrier tone, the Chancellor referred to Cafiero again: “Your ambassador directly attacked the administration of President Boric on a very hot political issue. Honestly it is unacceptable, days -besides- that we go to Celac-Argentina. already with that…”, he sentenced:
In addition to targeting Bielsa, Urrejola also referred to the decisions of his own President: “The environmental project as a whole was passed and is allowed caricature a decision of the administration of President Boric that involved the decision of State ministers in a complex political situation. He chose to align himself with the right on this.“, he concluded.
