That fostered the political rejection of many people to what the UP was doing. The CIA against Allende And what were they? I have the impression that we had a share of unreality regarding what could be done, which is very expressed in the UP program. We arrived with a third of the votes, 36%, and the UP program proposed things like nationalizing copper, iron, saltpeter, coal, iodine, all banking, the large industrial monopolies, the large monopolies. commercial and carry out a massive agrarian reform that in 1973 exceeded 6 million hectares. So, one has the right to ask: is it true that there were people who were about to destabilize Allende from the beginning, but the program that we were proposing, with a third of the votes, was a viable program? Or, deep down, did the number of people we were irritating with the things we were doing have a politically convening capacity that was too high for the forces we had at that time? Our responsibility was not to promote a coup.
Nor do we have responsibility for human rights violations. But in the end it was about creating the situations so that what Nixon wanted and what that world of the right wanted would be successful. And that is why I think Phone Number Database it may hurt to say it, but it is appropriate to educate new generations so that they do not fall into the same thing. In these weeks the great controversy in Chile is between those who maintain that the coup was inevitable, in the case of the right, and those who say the opposite. Do you have a clear answer? I have the impression that the decision to destabilize Allende was prior to Allende's government and there was a policy proposed in that sense. Well, the coup happened. Speculating under what conditions it might not have happened is a game of hypotheses that may entertain someone but does not make much sense from an analytical point of view.
I have the impression that the decision to destabilize Allende was prior to the Allende government and there was a policy proposed in that sense. The right and the DC had very different positions. Furthermore, the DC had a change program that had many things similar to the UP. The paradox is that this, rather than bringing us closer, transformed the DC and the UP into irreconcilable enemies that distrusted each other. If you read the UP program, all the sentences dedicated to disqualifying the DC are impressive. And if you read the memoirs of [former president] Patricio Aylwin about that period, he explicitly says that he has an absolute distrust of the PC and the PS. Ultimately, our critical reflection on the UP that led to what we have called 'socialist renewal' was precisely a very profound criticism of what we had done.
