Foreign Minister, Alfredo Moreno, valued visit to Chile that the U.S. President, Barack Obama announced as part of a tour that the President made in South America, where he visited only two countries considered strategic for the U.S.. Chile and Brazil.
"For the government of Chile is proud that the president of the leading world power come visit our country during his first visit to South America, and we think very positive that Chile has chosen to make their approaches, not only about our country, s ino also with respect our entire region, "Moreno said today.
In that vein, the chancellor said that the visit of U.S. president "is also a way to recognize, as noted in his speech State of the Union, the country that makes things responsibly. "
One of the issues that could arouse the attention during the visit of U.S. President has to do with the possible energy use in Chile nuclear, something that while the government is studying, would not happen during the current administration.
regard, Moreno said he could play that theme during the visit by Obama. "America is the country more developed world, has the best technologies in many fields and we want that we can put it in our development. It is the only way to make a significant leap forward, "he said.
" Also, we talks with them some nuclear energy, which, as you know, Chile is conducting the studies. There is no decision, but we must recover the time, "he added.
addition, the holder of Foreign Affairs said the U.S. intends to have 80% renewable energy, hence the 2035. "We want to be part of it. The energy issue is very important for Chile, in particular, clean energy, "added the minister.
Moreover, Moreno said there is still no exact date for Obama's visit, expected to confirm shortly. "We are, at present, without an exact date. We know this is going to be in the second half of March , and we fix the exact date in the coming days. As soon as we announce we're going."
"We had in the past 50 years, only two visits by U.S. presidents in Chile on a bilateral basis, so this is a moment that repeats every so often, and we use it very well," added.
