Chile’s leftist presidential candidate Gabriel Boric pledged fiscal responsibility as he seeks to win over centrist voters that will be key in the country’s Dec. 19 runoff.
Efficient public spending represents one of the main points to an addendum of plans that will be unveiled today, Boric said at a campaign event on Wednesday. If elected, Boric said he will stabilize debt levels as a percentage of gross domestic product by the end of his term.
