Maritime dispute between Chile and Peru expected to be discussed
President Sebastián Piñera invited Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa to join him in a visit to Antarctica to continue diplomatic discussions concerning Chile’s ongoing maritime border dispute with Peru. The trip is expected to take place between Nov. 6 and Nov. 8.
Piñera intends to discuss the validity of 1950s maritime treaties now used as Chile’s primary defense in the dispute. Ecuador is a fellow signatory of the treaties, and its cooperation, as well as appearance before International Court of Justice in The Hague, would be a key step in Chile’s effort to maintain the current parallel boundaries projected by the 1950s agreements.

 Survey also shows former President Bachelet’s popularity remains high and stable
President Sebastián Piñera received a 45 percent approval rating, while disapproval rates reached 29 percent, according to a survey reported last week by the Center of Public Education (CEP).
The results placed him as the president with the lowest approval rating for the first few months in office since Chile’s return to democracy in 1990. Former President Michelle Bachelet had an approval rating of 46 percent in July 2006, only a few months into her presidency, while former President Ricardo Lagos had a 49 percent approval rating from November to December in 2000.
