“Soon the speech for tomorrow in Parliament. For the third year in a row, I am going to report on behalf of the government and announce the next steps to take. We are on the right track and there is much to do, ”the president tweeted with a photo of his speech written under a pen and highlighter.
One of the things to keep in mind is that the president asked the National Party that the mobilization of its militants not be called this Thursday, something that had happened last year. However, those who wish to spontaneously approach the vicinity of the Legislative Palace may do so.
