Exfiscal Fodich is investigated for alleged links with a criminal gang; Kast restores the First Lady's cabinet, and the Court declares admissible the appeal of Senator Camila Flores to limit access to seized equipment

The President of Chile, José Antonio Kast, has formally reinstated the cabinet of the First Lady, Pía Adriasola, providing institutional backing to her team. This decision reverses a move made during the previous administration of Gabriel Boric, which had dissolved the structure in 2022. The reinstatement was formalized through Resolution No. 391 dated May 13, 2026, signed by the administrative director of the Presidency, Julio Feres. The Ministry of Social Development supported the measure, stating it would aid efforts to combat poverty and identify gaps affecting children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. However, some lawmakers criticized the decision, calling it unnecessary and adding bureaucracy at a time of financial constraints, arguing that priorities should focus on security and family economics.
