Meeting with the President of the Republic of Chile

The President of the Council of Ministers, Giorgia Meloni, today received the President of the Republic of Chile, José Antonio Kast. During the meeting, President Kast shared the main reforms that his Government has introduced to improve the investment climate and boost growth. In this regard, the two Presidents agreed on the need to enhance cooperation in fighting transnational criminal networks, responsible for diverting economic resources away from national development. In light of the particularly positive dynamics in bilateral relations, the two leaders agreed to draw up an Action Plan to set out concrete goals to be met in strategic sectors such as energy, infrastructure, critical minerals, defence and space, also with the involvement of the private sector. Lastly, President Meloni highlighted the benefits, in terms of investments and diversification, arising from closer collaboration between Italy and Chile, also as part of the relations between the European Union and Latin America.
