The Argentine Government has communicated to the Chilean Government its deep concern over the acts of violence that took place on Monday 23 October at Argentina's diplomatic mission in Santiago de Chile, which affected the consular offices and a part of the Argentine Ambassador's residence in Santiago.
Yesterday afternoon, a violent group of people wearing hoods attempted to enter the Argentine diplomatic mission by throwing stones and burning objects that damaged and broke a part of the building in which the Argentine diplomatic mission in Chile operates.
The Argentine Republic condemns this act of violence and vandalism and strongly rejects this kind of demonstrations as a form of public expression and promotion of political ideas.
