Chile's new president shifts away from Palestinian support, strengthens Israel ties

According to Al Jazeera English, Chile's newly elected president is reversing years of strong Palestinian advocacy under former President Gabriel Boric by moving to strengthen diplomatic and economic relations with Israel. Al Jazeera reports that the policy shift has prompted Palestinian communities in Chile to organize opposition, marking a departure from the country's recent foreign policy stance toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
