VOICED : Chile redactará su nueva Constitución desde el 4 de julio

Chilean President Sebastián Piñera announced the inauguration of the Constitutional Convention, tasked with drafting a new constitution to replace the one from Pinochet's era. The first session is set for July 4, following the validation of 155 elected members. Independent candidates won 46% of the votes, surpassing traditional parties. The convention has nine months, extendable by three, to draft the new text, which will be ratified by a plebiscite. The new constitution aims to address demands from the 2019 protests, promoting a more inclusive and socially responsible society with stronger state regulation of natural resources.
